Nose bleeds.
 

This afternoon I've had 5 nose bleeds, ranging from really light and stopping almost as soon as they've started, to 2 that were really heavy, and lasted about 15 minutes each.

I've got a rather shitty cold at the moment,so I have been blowing my nose a lOt,but it's more just wiping then blowing, because when I blow my nose it feels like my eyes are going to drop out.

Anyway. Is there like, a certain length of time they're supposed to go on for before I should be concerned? Is it strange to have a mixture of heavy and light bleeding?

Hmmm,sorry if this is vague or anything.
I'm going to Uni in a minute anyway,so if it happens there I can go to the uni drop in centre I suppose.

Thanks

That is a lot of nosebleeds for one person in one day, and it's definitely a good idea to go to your Uni drop in center. The doctors there may be able to determine why you have had so many today and they may be able to give you something for your cold so you feel better.

There really isn't any advice that I can give you except keep a bunch of tissues around in case it happens again and keep your head tipped forward and pinch your nose together for at least 10 minutes to help stop the bleeding. Try not to swallow any of the blood as it will make you nauseas.

The lining of the insides of our noses can be quite delicate with all the tiny blood vessels, so it's very possible that the bleeding is being caused by these rupturing due to all the nose blowing and wiping etc.

Nose bleeds which last longer than about 10 minutes (in which you are constantly bleeding) would be ones to keep an eye on. And if these continue or rise in length of time that they are lasting, then see a doc like aidey has said.
