[QUOTE="LVJ76, post: 3102375, member: 108965"] I feel your pain, I have exposed blood vessels on both nostrils, so I get nose bleeds on both sides. It's worse during the dry heat and allergy season, and then my sinus doesn't help either. As a kid I was always getting it cauterized, until my doctor said that if I apply Neosporin with a qtip, night and morning for a couple of weeks when the first bleed starts, that I would be good for a while, and it has worked very well. Guess he was tired of taking my parents money every few months for the same thing LOL. Never gotten one to the point I end up in the ER, but, when I can't stop it, I use vinegar on a cotton ball, push it all the way in for a few minutes, once it stops, apply Neosporin. The vinegar is very uncomfortable, but it works. I've heard many many times that hydrogen peroxide on a cotton ball works, NOT TRUE! Hydrogen peroxide just makes the blood sort of boil, but doesn't stop the bleed at all, unlike vinegar. So for a quick remedy, plain vinegar and a cotton ball will work. [/QUOTE]
