https://www.epainassist.com
Nosebleed is medically known as Epistaxis.
Epistaxis is can be defined as an acute oozing of blood from the nostrils, nasal cavity or nasopharynx. It is one of the most common complaints to the ED.
With severe epistaxis or nosebleed, nasal packing is needed to stop the nosebleeds.
A small nasal packing is used for the anterior nose bleeds where as a long nasal packing is used for the severe or deep inside bleeding.
Most nasal packages contain an inflatable balloon with a syringe.
The inflatable balloon is first dipped in water to moisturize it.
Now, nasal packing is slowly inserted into the nose. Once inserted into the nose, balloon is inflated with the syringe apparatus given with nasal package.
Sufficient amount of air is added into the balloon so that the pressure exerted by the balloon exceeds the pressure of bleeding vessel of the nose.
This nasal packing is kept in place inside the nose anywhere from 1 to 5 days as per the medical condition.
Once the nosebleed stops, condition improves and the nasal packing is ready to be removed; the nasal packing is deflated with the syringe and then removed slowly and diligently.
