Nose Bleed

[Perfect Stu]

Who here gets nosebleeds?

I never had a nosebleed in my entire life...until last night. And it seemed to make up for my previous lack of nosebleeds.

I was playing poker with my buddies, and as I was dealing the cards, I felt something warm run down over my mouth. I touched it with my hand to see what it was, and it was a LOT of blood. It kept coming, too...like water from a faucet. I clogged it with pieces of Kleenex until they were saturated...I used about 5 pieces. It stopped, and I went to wash up. Both of my hands were soaked in blood, my shirt had bloodstains, and I had a handful of crimson Kleenex.

Now I dont get grossed out by blood...but this was kinda nasty.

Anyone have any idea what could have caused such an...outpour?

[Joeiss]

Probably the weather... Its been really humid lately, and I dunno... Hard to explain.

And I am the King of nosebleeds... Well, I use to be, lol. USed to get them alot... not much any more though.

I've had a few here and there but not as bad as you said it was.

[Ginkasa]

I used to get tons of them during 6th and 7th grade, mostly at night. Pretty bad ones, too. I would just wake up in the middle of the night and find my pillow covered in blood. I eventually, I always made sure I had a spare pillow in my room.

I don't get them anymore, however. I always figured it was a "growing boy" thing or something...

how much blood are we talking here? cause I think I could have filled a salad bowl

[Ginkasa]

A whole lot of blood. My worst ones had pillow nearly soaked through and blood all over my shirt. Most of them weren't that bad. Usually I would just stick some toilet paper up my nose and go back to sleep, but sometimes they were...eh...

Sometimes you can get a nosebleed if you're finger is in your nose more than once a day.

I've only had a couple of nosebleeds, I didn't like it.

[Dyne]

Oh yeah. I used to have terrible ones too. It became a medical hazard I began writing on forms for sports and school and everything.

It either comes from the dryness of the air or playing sports a lot. My dad had the same condition. He had it so bad the doctor ended up cauterizing his nose 5 times. (Yes, sticking a piping hot fork up your nose, subjecting you to the horrible smell of your own burning flesh. 5 times.)

Oh yeah, stop picking your nose too. Don't put your finger up there.

I had some pretty bad nosebleeds myself. I absolutely hate them because when they get in your mouth it tastes awful and it forms those weird jelly blood things. Sometimes when I had a stealth nose bleed I used to gross my brother out by sucking a blood jelly into my mouth and rubbing all over my teeth with my tongue. "Hey, Alan! *opens mouth*"

Needless to say, he was grossed out.

[Dylflon]

I had one that lasted 15 minutes once. That sucked.


Gengis Khan died of a nose bleed.

I get them once in awhile, especailly when I have a cold. At certain times it seems like every time a blow my nose it starts to bleed. But they usualy dont last very long, Im a master at getting them stopped.

[BlueFire]

I've never had one, but they look interesting

[Dark Samurai]

I had what Ginkasa had, just nosebleeds out of nowhere.

I had it for 6 months, then they just stopped for some reason, i dont know why though.

It was actually Atilla the Hun, wasn't it?

Anyway, I've had a couple nose bleeds. None of them were nearly as big as what ginkasa and dyne and Perfect Stu were talking about though.

[Typhoid]

Because i split my nose in half when i was 3, my nose bleeds out of nowhere, and doesnt like to stop. ( to put it into perspective, its like that guy on a game forum, who posts at everything, he just wont stop) But now that i think of it i havent got one for a few months, which is good, because usually in the mornings, at least once a month, i wake up with dried blood all over my face...

....maybe i dont have nosebleeds, maybe someone is punching me in the face while i sleep?.
