A member asked:

How do treat a nose bleed for a 9 year old?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Pressure: Apply pressure to nose for at least 5 minutes. Sometime you have to do it for up to an hour (rarely) before going to er. Apply vaseline to nostril at night an once during the day (this prevents dryness).
