Oi. I spent my whole childhood with frequent nosebleeds-- every school year's first good episode was like an initiation for the new teacher. Always a relief when the teacher was old, had seen it all before, and was OK with me just dashing to the bathroom to handle it on my own. Young inexperienced teachers who freaked out and tried to practice their first-aid certs on me: gah!
I never did find anything that helped with it, though. Tried nasal steroids at one point, and found that while they seemed to maybe help a little... they *caused* nosebleeds if I forgot even one dose. And I was very forgetful.
Yarrow is the traditional remedy for external bleeding. I've always wanted to try it for nosebleed, or see if anybody else has, and what results they got. But I've never had the stuff around when it happened, and in the end, age seems to have cured the problem, more or less. Has anybody else tried it?
