What should children do with nosebleeds?
Three steps to treat nosebleeds-sitting down, tilting your head, and pinching your nose when nosebleeds, because red blood looks horrible and is not easy to clean, many people will lie down or pinch their nose bones to stop bleeding in a panic. In fact, these treatment methods are not correct. The correct way to treat nosebleeds is to sit, lean forward, and hold the soft parts of the nose and nose for about 5 minutes. Because most of the broken skin is 0.5 cm at the exit of the nose, most people often plug their nostrils with toilet paper or hold the nasal bones with their hands, trying to stop bleeding by pressing blood vessels. In fact, this method is ineffective. As for lying down, it is an ostrich practice that is far from the eye. Blood is not only easy to flow backwards and choke on the throat, but also causes nausea and aspiration pneumonia when swallowed too much. Therefore, once nosebleeds are handled properly, if there is too much bleeding, you should seek help from a doctor as soon as possible, otherwise it will cause other complications, which will be even worse! Usually nosebleeds are mostly caused by external injuries, such as nose bumps. Excessive climate: dryness (cracking the nasal membrane), sudden change of air pressure, picking your nose with your nails, or blowing your nose too hard, may also cause nasal mucosa injury and bleeding. Some people have nosebleeds that drip blood all over their mouths, chin and clothes, which looks quite scary. There are two types of nosebleeds: anterior type and posterior type. Posterior position mainly affects the elderly, especially patients with hypertension. In this type, blood flows out from behind the nose and flows into the throat along the back of the mouth, no matter what posture the patient is in. In severe cases, the direction of blood flow may be both before and after. This nosebleed needs hospital care. The common nosebleed belongs to the anterior type, which flows out from the front of the nose. When standing or sitting down, blood flows from one or both nostrils. When lying down, blood may enter the throat. This nosebleed may be scary, but it's not serious. Whether it is due to the dry climate, the side effects of high blood pressure or arteriosclerosis, or the nosebleeds caused by accidentally breaking the nasal cavity, the tips provided below are helpful for all kinds of nosebleeds.
