Answer:

Sitting with head tilted slightly forward

Step-by-step explanation:

Epistaxis is an acute haemorrhage from the nostril, it is decease which causes nose infection and can result in severe anxiety. According to various doctors, the patient's position can slow down the negative effects of epistaxis. The client must sit with head titled slightly forward to slow down the process of the disease until it is properly treated by a certified ENT specialist.
