Epistaxis is one of the most common ENT emergencies. It is more common in males than in females. It is caused by various etiological factors. The simplest treatment is pinching of ala nasi. Our study was the prospective study. We recruited 30 patients (all adults) who presented with epistaxis in ENT department of a tertiary care hospital. We managed our patients with merocel packs alone. Patients did not experience further episodes of bleeding following removal of merocel packs after 48 hours.
