Quick help please how to stop a nosebleed.

DS (6) has a nosebleed, he gets them from time to time but this one's been going for 20 mins, how do I stop it. It't time to go to school and I have a friend's DD here to take as well...

I don't think you can stop them... Just mop up the blood really. Don't tip his head back.

pinch bridge of nose and lean forward......get someone else to take them to school!! or phone school and say you will be late !

Think it is finally stopping but thought that earlier on...

how to stop a nose bleed!

Thank you. It did stop but I had to drive to school instead of walking - no problem. Poor little guy, this happens to him a lot.
