hello!
cauterization is a quick way of stopping the bleeding, but it is not the most effective one!!
you should try to find out the cause for the nose bleeds, which may be sudden increase in your blood pressure ( as evident from your dizziness and nausea) and treat it !
please meet your ent doctor, he will guide you further
thanks
