i once saw a pad advert and i was with my couasain so I asked her. She said its when you have a nosebleed so you use it as a plaster. I bumped my nose the next day and I got a nose bleed so I asked my mum' mum please can I have a pad for my Nose. When I learnt what it actually was I was pretty embarrassed. My couasain still reminds me of that day.
