I am a certified doctor RBH at this is what we are told by medical legislation 43.56\nHold the side of your nose that is bleeding- with pressure from your fingers and apply a cold compress. Don't tilt your head too much the nose is connected to your air pipes and lungs, etc, and the blood will pool down that way. If the nose does not stop bleeding in 15 mins, seek medical attention. \n\nBe gentle with it for a while after it does stop, don't blow it too hard, etc. Don't take aspirin for the pain, or ibuprofen, they thin your blood. Tylenol will be ok.

Please consult you doctor. What you may be experiencing is allergic rhinitis and might not need to drink decongestant at all. When I have clogged nose, I steam. The hot air you breathe would make the mucus melt or not as hard. So you can easily blow it out. If you have sinnusitis, this would help a lot too. Just boil a cup of water and let it stand for a couple of minutes and breathe the steam for five to ten minutes. Just make sure the steam is not to hot because it might burn your face

cleanse your nostrils with saline 2 times a day, helps me\n\ni keep a bottle of saline in my purse, in my shower, on my bathroom sink and in the glove box of my car (don't forget tissue, u gotta blow your nose afterward)

Injury to the nose will be noticeable and painful.  Were you in a coma?

Because your nose is not very clean.  Try cleaning your nose out and u might see a difference.

It may be hard to tell if your nose is broken. Swelling can make your nose look crooked even if it is not broken. When the swelling goes down after a few days, it is easier to tell if your nose is really crooked. Most health professionals prefer to evaluate an injured nose soon after the swelling has gone down. Sometimes testing, such as an X-ray or computed tomography (CT) scan of the head, may be needed if other facial fractures are suspected.\n\nhope that helps

you should flushed you eye out immediately for at least 10 min with real cold water!! Since it is swollen you need to go to the ER for them to treat it.

I had this problem associated with a sore throat and nose bleed. Turned out the air in my room was to dry, so I put a humidifier on at night, drink plenty of water before I go to bed and keep a glass of water on my night stand. If it dosen't clear up in a week or two you may want to see a doctor.

Dont Pop it!!!!!!!!! that may cause infection.....leave it alone and let it heal on its own....its probably a bruise......It will feel better in a couple of days and you wont even notice it.....if its really painful put some ice in your mouth and on the bruise ....that will help with the swelling and make it feel better.

You can wait and let it go away on its own. Or you can use a sterile nasal saline spray to wash, but that's more of a prevention method than anything else.

You probably blew some air up your Eustachian tube into your ear. That can happen if there is enough pressure in the nose blowing. The air gets trapped there, but will eventually leak back out. This is not an uncommon problem, and generally, harmless. But if there is any bacteria that gets blown into the ear when you do this, it could lead to an ear infection. So, the lesson to learn here is to not blow your nose that hard. If your ear is still hurting in a few days, you might want to see a doctor to make sure you don't have an inner ear problem.

EWWWWWW! It just looks like u ate a green something!  Get a tongue scraper from your drugstore! I promise all that buildup can be scraped away.   If no improvement see a Ears/Nose/Throat doctor stat!

It bleeds because your nose is dry and has no moister in it. Just like any cut just apply pressure and after apply some Vaseline to it. That helps to prevent it.

you probably have a sinus infection. go see the doc and double up on the first dose.\nhaving it for a couple of days isn't 'normal'

im thinking its because your sinues are dried out, and when blowing your nose, the small blood vessels in the area break. i wouldnt worry unless it doesnt stop, try not to blow your nose so much, if its neccessary to blow it, do so gently. i had to have sinus surgery after years iof having sinus infections that would not go away, i had retention cysts in the sinuses in the cheeks, if your continuing to have sinus infections this may be something you would want to discuss with your physician
