Don't pick. It takes seven to ten days to completely heal the rupture in the blood vessel that caused your nose to bleed. Bleeding stops after the clot forms. but the clot becomes a scab as healing continues. If you pick your nose during the next week and knock The scab off, you will give your self another nosebleed.

pinch your nose and lean forward.
Don't do the lean back trick- you just swallow the blood which will upset your stomach and make you more likely to throw up
Getting frequent nosebleeds can be a sign of something more serious, so if this is a common problem for you then see the Dr about it

This is not an uncommon topic and I have answered it a number of times. If you look back by putting nosebleed in the "search" field, you will find advice on this topic.

As a registered nurse I can tell you: "Do not tilt the head back!" This can lead to even more problems. just hold a tissue under your nose and let it run it's course.

do not lie on your back because you will sallow the blood try slightly leaning forward while pinching your nose with a napkin.

Tip your head back and put an ice pack on it.
