Thanks for the great posts! :)

Thanks for being rambunctious enough to put this theory to the test. It's always nice to have testers "in the field" who can vouch for our spoutings. ;) Cool, Joey.

Thanks so much for that tip. Hopefully your nosebleeds are looong gone now. :) Adrian, sometimes the most obvious things are the least obvious. Thanks so much for that tip.

I've been given advice similar to this by multiple medical personnel and I can attest from experience that it is true.

I was told to do all sorts of things to make the bleeding stop, including what you've mentioned here. To this day when I have a nose bleed, I *always* tilt my head back. My husband (EMT) fusses at me, but I have had enough nose bleeds to know how to make it stop. It might not be the healthiest thing for me to do, but everything else I've tried, especially tilting my head forward, has always made the bleeding worse. (Trust me, I have horror stories you do NOT want to hear about! ;) ) When I was a child, I had horrible nose bleeds all the time.

For blood to coagulate, it needs oxygen. Maybe it sounds obvious, but I used to have bleeds which would last for an hour because I would squeeze too hard!
