Guys, I need a nosebleed remedy for my nosebleeds. I have nosebleeds fairly often (I think from dry air from living up north) and I bleed enough to go through half a box of tissues before I can get it to stop. I always feel woozy afterwards. I've tried everything from tilting my head back (it just makes the blood go into my throat and make me puke from the taste/thought) to plugging my nose with the tissue (that works best but the tissue gets soaked after a while and I have to change them, at which point Niagara Falls lets loose out of my nose). Is anyone a doctor here who could give me a few free tips on effective nosebleed stoppers other than using blood clotting meds (if I need to clot my blood I'll just down some sticks of liquid butter )?

Not a doc, just a guy who has gotten in his fair share of fights in his younger years and traveled some drier climates as well. A stiff bit of folded up paper held between your upper lip and gums, held as tight as you can stand it, will help stifle the nose bleeds when they happen.

For the dryness, try swabbing the insides of your nose with Vaseline using a q-tip. It'll help keep the skin in there from drying out too bad. It'll also help the wounds to heal. Neosporin will also work as well for this.

K, thanks. I will definitely try this when I get a nosebleed next

Most Dr.s will tell you that you won't get so many nosebleeds if you just kept your finger out of there! LOL

lol but I don't pick my nose I just live in a dry climate and my nose skin cracks sometimes and then its Niagara Falls
