when you didn't realise until later that you had a nose bleed

I just thought I had a runny nose and wiped it on the back of my hand, caught sight of myself in the mirror

sort of like that, but a bit more blood

Now THAT'D be a nosebleed!

TMPletz said:

very embarassing since I went to the shops in the meantime!

Awwww

ZombieKitten said:

yes, that's a bit more like it

Me: "Could I have 100g of the sliced mild salami, please"

Anx said:

Is that blood, or is she just really constipated?

TMPletz said:

ok, it's actually lipstick...some people just don't know when to stop.

Anx said:

good lord!

ZombieKitten said:

it's one way to camoflage your nosebleed!

I don't remember the last time I had a nose bleed. I think I've only had one in my life, ever.

I had them ALL the time as a child. All I had to do was bump the side of my nose. I remember doing it on purpose in the middle of an RE exam in year 11! My mum took me to the doctor and he put some stuff in there to shrink the capillaries away from the nasal membrane so it wouldn't happen as much, and it did help. The air is so dry because of the heating, and if I don't get enough sleep I will get a nose bleed.

I had the same problem when I was a child.

TMPletz said:

did you get it fixed with that stuff in the end of a stick?

ZombieKitten said:

Well, they tried. It didn't help much. It was a temporary fix.

oh hell the smell and taste of blood would never sneek by my bionic senses

that would wake me outta a sound sleep

Mach said:

well here's the thing, the procedure they did on my nose has dulled my sense of smell. I cannot smell some people's farts! Actually that is quite a gift

Oh dear Charlotte!

Ive only ever had one when I was little too...its funny how some people get them all the time and then others will only ever get one when they get a really bad bash!
