My nose keeps bleeding?

Nose keeps bleeding heavily?

  • Just to start off with: I've never had a nose bleed before. On Wednesday I tripped and hit my face on cement. I have a cut in my forehead which had to get 3 stitches, a bad abrasion on my right hand and a fractured left nose bone. My nose didn't bleed when I hit, nor did it bleed yesterday. But in school today a blood clot all of a sudden moved and eventually fell out of my nose and blood POURED out of my nose. By poured I mean it pooled into my hands and overflowed my palms in about five seconds before my teacher gave me tissues and a paper towel and walked me down to the nurse. Now, about 8 hours later, my nose dripped blood again. It didn't pour, thankfully, but it dripped quite a lot and did for a little bit. Is there anything I can do? Anything to help prevent or fix it? It's a non-displacement fracture so I don't have any tape or brace on my nose. Also, I've always had terrible season allergies with nose clogging and running back-and-forth so the clogging part would definitely explain the clotting and blocking of blood, but the fact that I smelled no blood either time until the clots moved and then all of a sudden a good amount of blood flowed (especially the first time. It was ridiculous, it got all over my mouth and shirt). Any help is appreciated!

  • Answer:

    you need to put pressure on the like the pinching area of your nose, the same spot you would hold or pinch someones nose if you were giving them CPR...while doing this, tilt your head up to keep the blood from flowing out...if you feel it pouring back to much, stop...thats not safe for your brain. If it continues i would suggest the doctors or a hospital for help...or just a call to a doctor for tips
