Probably something like, "oh shit, the hemophiliac boy is bleeding out again, we're in the middle of nowhere on our way to market with the cured saltpork, and he's already saturated all our handkerchiefs and rags."
As a veteran nosebleeder even before all this, I can confirm that when it starts flowing, it gets very bloody very fast. The miracle solution I started using in recent years was to douse my tissue in liquid vitamin K before cramming it up there, which stops it immediately (and doesn't waste good bacon either.) I mentioned this to the doctor and even brought the bottle the third time we went back to the ER so she could put in on the nose tampons she was ging to use, but she wasn't comfortable using it just on my say so.
