Nosebleeds are a common health condition, especially in young children. When faced with this condition, parents tend to stop the bleeding by any means possible, but in most cases, the bleeding stopping technique is incorrect and ineffective, and can even cause unwanted complications for children.

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.
