Ds had a nose bleed for about 40 mnts on saturday night passing huge clots. We took him to a&e and it stopped eventually and they cleaned him up, looked at him for an hour and sent him back.
I didn't clean his nose after that. We put some olive oil in last night when he slept and that seemed to clean it up a bit.
This afternoon I wiped it (only outside of the nostril very gently) and it still sparked off a fresh lot. He fell asleep during all this and now he's got a big clot blocking one nostril almost completely and it's drying up there. I am scared to touch it because it'll start off again - but have to clean too.
What can I do about it?
Any ideas please?
