Suggest Remedies For A Small Cut On The Edge Of The Nose
Question: I am taking Eliquis and I have a small cut and it won't stop bleeding. What can I do to stop it? Its right on the edge of my nose
Brief Answer:
Compress the area and put an ice pack.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Taking Eliquis can be associated with more than normal bleeding from a small cut. It is best to keep the area pressed and apply ice pack wrapped in a towel on that area. This will help in stopping the bleeding in 10-15 minutes. In case the bleeding persists then do attend an ER for proper compression bandage.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
