Advice: Is it going down the back of his throat or out the front? Does he pick his nose a lot, is it dry? To stop bleeding in the front of nose, put a tampon in. Does he have new bruises or purple spots on his skin? If so, he needs a complete blood count with platelets & coag studies (PT/PTT). If he's bleeding in the back he needs ENT doc to scope & cauterize the bleeder w/ silver nitrate or elec current
