NOSEBLEED. Mothers' RemediesCategory: Respiratory Diseases 1. Nosebleed; remedy sent us by a Public School Teacher. "Make a compress of paper soaked in cold water; put it under the upper lip and have the patient press the lip with the fingers. Remarks. Tried with success in many cases by a school teacher." By putting under the lip and pressing on it, you press on an artery and stop bleeding. Be careful to use nothing but white paper, as ink or colors would come out when wet. 2. Nosebleed, Alum as a cure for. "Apply cold water to face and back of neck; snuff powdered alum." The powdered alum contracts the blood vessels, thereby shutting off the supply of blood. The cold water applied to the back of the neck affects the nervous system in such a manner that the blood vessels are contracted and so the blood supply is diminished. 3. Nosebleed; Remedy that succeeded in a severe case. "Put pieces of ice in cloth. Lay a piece each side of the nose and on the back of the neck. Remarks. My neighbor's daughter had nosebleed which refused to stop until they were much frightened but this treatment soon stopped it, after which she rested quietly for a time," 4. Nosebleed, Simple Remedy for. "Place the finger on the side of the nose tight for ten or fifteen minutes. My mother has stopped her nose from bleeding when other remedies failed." This shuts off the circulation and helps to form a clot. 5. Nosebleed, Another Home Remedy for. "Hold the head back as far as possible, press up the end of the nose with the end of the finger." Best to lie on the side so blood will not run down the throat and choke the patient. 6. Nosebleed, Puff-Ball for. "Find an old brown puff-ball from the ground, pick out the soft inside part and put it in nose and let remain for some time." 7. Nosebleed, Vinegar and Water for. "Wet a cloth in very cold water or strong cold water and vinegar and apply to back of neck, renewing as it gets warm. Have seen this tried and know it to be good."
