Nose Bleeds

[Raja510]

Seems like everytime I spar I get nose bleeds. Doesn't help that I have a big ass nose....pretty easy target..lol. But any tips other than continuing to work on my defense? The more I spar its getting better...bleeding less than when I first started, but its still always sore as hell and its slowing me down from sparing more than once a week. Any tips on conditioning it to getting hit?

Stick a tampon up in there before you start.

hahaha ... keep ur hand ready to knock the pucnhes wat r deliverd to ur face...
Keep ur chin down.. and mayb keep ur head movin

[RockOn33]

with modern day science, u can actually get ur nose removed

[Thriller]

mine bleeds alot too, if your not sparring beause your nose is SORE then mabye you arnt cut out for boxing.
You can also get head gear with nose protection which would help.

You can get your nostril cauterized, they basicaly burn the vein with a nitrate stick or electrocautery needle. I know 2kids at my old gym had it done to them. Search up "Nostril Cauterization" on google if you want some more info.

Some people just bleed a lot from the nose when they get punched there. It's genetic probably, so there's not much you can do. Work on your defence, and protect that nose if you don't want nose bleeds. Work on it with your trainer.

My Nose Bleeds All The Time As Well Raja510..... Even From A Little Tap Most Times Im A Bloody Mess...

Try Going To See A Doctor And getting It Cauterized, It Should Fix It Or Help Out... But Theres No Guarantees, I Had It Done 3 Times, It Helped A Bit But My Nose Still Bleeds Easy...

And I Know You Said U Wanted Tips Other Then Improving Your Defence.. But It Does Help A Whole Lot...

[Raja510]

Thanks for the ideas. If I still keep bleeding a lot I'll look into a doc and see if something can get done. I'm not worried about the pain just the fact that I'm bleeding all over the place. I'll keep working on my defense. :good Thanks.

dont get hit.

after a while your nose gets used to it but i found my best solution, because i was a chronic nose bleeder, was to just not get hit. i becasem a defensive wiz in my gym and became pretty hard to hit.

or you can get it cauterized but thats the last option. thats where they freeze or burn some cells in your nose or soemthing. just work on your defense brotha.

you could try the facesaver headgear either the mask or the bar until you feel comfartable sparring without taking so many punches to the head. The other alternative is cartarising the vessels in your nose. I'd go with the 1st suggestion unless you are fighting competively (meaning over 10 fights a year). Put it this way your signing your name on the ring mat. Good Luck

Nice bro.. The Nation is back.

[QuestionKid7]

Boxing4life, i'm not sure why pros don't do it. Now dont quote me on this or anything but it shouldn't make your nose break easier. All that happens is they burn the vein that your bleeding from. I just suggested it because two people I know and have boxed with and sparred have had it done. One of them used to bleed ALOT, he got it cauterized and he still bleeds just not nearly as bad or as easily.

Hey most nose bleeds that start from a not to hard of a shot to
the nose are from the nostrals being dried out from the air around
where you are living or working and I found that the best cure for
this is vasaline in the nostrals at night before bed and again in the
morning just a smear in each nostral, for a week or so and it should
fix it up, :thumbsup

[horsebox]

i suffer nose bleeds too,even just sitting watching tv it goes off.
i searched round a good bit on google and here it is.
never pick your nose with your finger.it breaks the membranes down weakens the inner lining/wall of your nose.best thing to do is line it with vaseline.the "greeners" nearly slide out on their own.
secondly,you can buy hydrochloric acid at any chemists (its a womans hair dye).get 4 parts water to 1 part hcl(acid)and immerse your nose in it twice a day for 5 mins each.it actually toughens the inner lining and stops it bleeding.sorry ive no link to back this up-i googled it a long time ago and cant remember the actual site its off.

So do I.

Look for the 5'10, 155 lb. Asian guy who always wears black shorts and black shoes, white socks, and black ankle braces. I usually train with Paris.

Did you go to the smoker last Fri?

What's up man, I train with Paris to. I'm the tallest guy training with him...names Raj. I didn't go to the smoker because the fights were all bootcamp guys. There's a real smoker next Wed at Fanatics in the city.

Oh, I think I see you there all the time.

The other Eric, the HW (my name's also Eric) is fighting in that, right? He was supposed to fight last Friday, but they scraped his at the last minute.

Cool, introduce yourself next time. I'll be there Thursday and Friday. Yeah, Eric told me about last week. That was lame scraping the fight at the last minute. He would have tore him up anyhow. The real fight will be next week for him. I'm going to be out of town on business so I'm going to miss it. I hope he kicks a$$ for the gym.

yer i go my noise done it works, avnt had a bleedin noise since an my noise was really bad. The only problem is that u wont b able to do any sparin or any thing 4 about 2 weeks after it.

[IronBrewSam]

Vaseline does keep the nose from drying out but I read that it is bad for your lungs to inhale vaseline so shouldn't be put up your nose.
If dry air is bad does this mean that a sauna would make your nose more prone to bleeding and a steam room would help?

[boxexpert]

how about blocking the punches with your hands instead your nose? that might help
