How to stop Nosebleed

I woke up one night because I could not breath. Something was blocking my nostril. After a while I fell a sleep not knowing that my nose bled because the room was dark. Here, I decided to write how to stop nose bleeding.

First, loosen the clothing around your neck.
Put a cotton pad in the bleeding nostril.
Then sit down with your head leaning forward.
Squeeze your nose until it stops bleeding.
If your nose continues to bleed, go to a doctor.
