Nosebleeds are a fairly common condition in children. Although not uncommon, they can be a source of anxiety and embarrassment for many parents. You can relieve a nosebleed by tilting your child’s head forward and pinching his or her nose. To prevent frequent nosebleeds, keep the air dry and don’t let your child put his or her fingers (or anything else) in his or her nose.

Nosebleeds can occur during the day or at night while sleeping. In the case of nosebleeds while sleeping, detection and first aid are often more difficult. Therefore, proactive prevention of nosebleeds while sleeping is extremely important.
