BLEEDING The principle of controlling blood loss is to restrict the flow of blood to the injured part by pressure and elevation

Treatment of Bleeding Apply a clean dressing to the wound. Firmly and with constant pressure. If you are sure there is no fracture, raise the part and support it while keeping pressure. Clean, cover and dress wound as soon as possible

NOSEBLEEDS Most nosebleed are from broken blood vessels just inside the front of the nose. Blood usually comes out of just one nostril. Often the bleeding stops on its own

CAUSES OF NOSEBLEEDS Frequent or hard nose blowing or coughs Nose picking Common cold Allergies Very cold or very dry air A punch or blow to the nose

FIRST AID FOR NOSEBLEEDS Sit with head leaning forward Pinch the nostrils shut, using your thumb and forefinger is such a way that the nasal septum (the nose’s midsection) is being gently squeezed. Hold for 15 uninterrupted minutes, breathing through your mouth. Apply cold compresses to the area around the nose.

CUTS, SCRAPES and PUNCTURES Cuts slice the skin open. Scrapes hurt only the top part of your skin. They can hurt more than cuts, but they heal quicker.

Puncture stab deep. Leave punctures open so they won’t get infected. Apply pressure to help slow bleeding. If a deep cut, stitches may be necessary. Puncture wounds need to bleed in order to clean itself out. Wash wound with warm water and soap.
