A member asked:

29/m had a nosebleed from blowing nose too much. it dripped steadily and he pinched it but he passed out. conscious now, what should i do for him?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nothing: Unless he fell and hurt himself, he will recover and be okay. It is not uncommon for some people to faint on sight of blood.

A member asked:

When sick (cold/flu) or stuffy, is it normal to have some chunky bits with blood when you blow your nose? As long as it doesn't keep bleeding (no nosebleed), is there no bleeding issue (ie. too thin)?
