The first step is to have the person sit still and quiet while you perform the procedure of stopping the bleeding nose. Tissue can be placed into the nostril that is bleeding and serve as some type of absorbent packing type material.

That will reduce blood flow to that nasal cavity. After five minutes to twenty minutes, the nose bleed should cease. After the nose bleed stops, then the packing material or tissue can be removed.

Another technique that commonly works and aids the pinching technique, is to place ice chips under the lip between the gum and the lip, as this will reduce the size of the capillaries and blood vessels leading to the nose.

At no point in time, should the head be tilted back where blood can drain down the nasal cavity into the stomach region.
