Wintry climates and cold viruses can lead to frequent nosebleeds, says the National Hemophilia Foundation.

To prevent nosebleeds during winter, the foundation suggests:

• Use a humidifier to moisturize the air.
• Use a nasal saline spray or water-soluble gel for your nose.
• If you have a cold, wipe gently. Don’t clear your nose with hard blows.
• Avoid vigorous activities after a nosebleed.
• Don’t pick your nose.
