One side of your nose started to bleed out nowhere After you blew it stopped but a big clot came out?

Here are some steps you can take to manage a nosebleed:

- Stay calm and sit up straight. Leaning forward can cause more blood to flow.

- Pinch your nostrils. Use your thumb and index finger to pinch the soft part of your nostrils together just below the bridge of your nose. Breathe through your mouth.

- Hold pressure for 10-15 minutes. Keep pinching your nostrils until the bleeding stops. If the bleeding hasn't stopped after 15 minutes, seek medical attention.

- Apply a cold compress. Placing a cold compress or ice pack on the bridge of your nose can help to constrict blood vessels and reduce bleeding.

- Avoid blowing your nose. Blowing your nose can irritate the nasal tissues and cause more bleeding.

- Use saline nasal spray. Saline nasal spray can help to keep the nasal passages moist and prevent dryness, which can reduce the risk of nosebleeds.

If the nosebleed is severe or does not stop after 20 minutes of continuous pressure, seek medical attention. You should also see a doctor if you have frequent nosebleeds or if they are accompanied by other symptoms, such as fever, headache, or facial pain.
