How Can Cold And Nose Bleeding Be Treated?
From having cold symptoms and dry heat got nosebleed at work, had taken 2 Advil before work. Sneezed and nose started bleeding for awhile. Put dampened rolled gauze pad in nostril to drive home. Worried it will start when I remove it! Any suggestions?

Hello! Welcome to HealthcareMagic!
I understand your concern. Some advice that I can give you are:
1) Spraying the nose with a medicated nasal spray before applying. pressure may help stop a nosebleed.
2) Apply an ice pack to your nose and cheeks.
3) Put a thin layer of a saline nasal gel, such as NasoGel, inside your nose.
4) Rest.
Hope my answer was helpful. If you have any other questions, Ill be glad to help.
Thank you for the query.
Take care
