Answers:
Pinch the bridge of your nose & tilt your head forward.. The ol' "tilt your head backwards" only diverts the blood to your stomach, which then irritates your stomach lining & makes you prone to puking.. If you can't get it to stop, you can also put an ice pack (ice wrapped in a wash cloth) on the back of your neck, or on your forehead.. The cold constricts the blood vessels, slowing bleeding.. Just remember not to blow your nose for a little while, even after the bleed stops since it'll dislocate the clot & start the bleeding over again.. You don't want to stuff tissues up there because as soon as you take them out, it'll dislocate the clot.. Always go to the ER (call an ambulance if you need to) if you can't get it under control!
Remember- pinch, tilt (forward), and ice!
