If the nosebleed occurs while lying down,
If the nosebleed occurs while lying down, it is common to feel liquid in the back of the throat before the blood comes from the nose. It is best not to swallow the blood as it could cause feelings of nausea and vomiting. The medical term for a nosebleed is epistaxis. Nosebleeds are common in adults and children between the ages of 3 and 10.
