Nose bleeds: 20-30 minutes sounds like a, long time for a nose bleed to last. If it happens again, spray Afrin nasal spray into her nose. That should shrink the blood vessels and make it easier to stop the bleeding. Then apply pressure to clamp and nose and tilt your head forward. You can also apply ice. Seeing an ENT doctor for evaluation and treatment would be the next step.
