I don’t get bloody noses. Not the dripping kind that requires you to sit forward and pinch your nose for 10 minutes. My brother does. My nephew does. But, not me.

Tonight, I got a bloody nose.

I have allergies, we had the air on in the house for a few hours, and I’d been blowing and picking at my stuffy nose throughout the last two days. That is likely why I got the darn thing. But, I don’t get them! So, it’s been a shock. I am getting over it now.

Here’s the link again to the WebMD page on Bloody Noses if you need a quick first aid reference.
