First Aid For Stopping Severe Bleeding by ukemeumoh: 11:30pm On Oct 20, 2017
Injuries and certain medical conditions can result in serious bleeding. This can cause anxiety and fear, but bleeding can be handle successfully. You need to understand how to treat common bleeding incidents such as cuts and bloody noses and also when to seek medical help.

Before you begin to treat an injury, you should identify its severity of the cut because there are some situations in which you shouldn’t try to administer any kind of first aid at all. Especially If you suspect that there’s internal bleeding or if there’s an embedded object surrounding the site of the injury, immediately call your local emergency services.

Also seek immediate medical care for a cut or wound if:

it’s the result of an animal bite
there’s dirt that won’t come out after washing
the bleeding will not stop after 15 to 20 minutes of first aid
it’s jagged, deep, or a puncture wound
it’s on the face

If a person is bleeding profusely, be on the lookout for symptoms of shock. Cold, clammy skin, a weakened pulse, and loss of consciousness can all indicate that a person is about to go into shock from blood loss.
