  • Gently squeeze the soft parts of the lower nose together. Gently press them against the center wall for 10 minutes. This puts constant pressure on the bleeding point.
  • Use the thumb and index finger in a pinching manner.
  • If the bleeding does not stop, move your point of pressure.
  • Have your child sit up and breathe through the mouth during this process.
  • If the nose re-bleeds, use the same technique again.
