How to dress traumatic bleeding?

In life, we often encounter unexpected accidents or injuries, and there are often nervous scenes of bleeding or massive bleeding. If the bleeding cannot be stopped in time, it may be life-threatening. So how to deal with traumatic bleeding? Let's take a look at Bian Xiao's detailed introduction.

Timely and appropriate dressing after trauma can play a role in compressing and stopping bleeding, reducing infection, protecting wounds, relieving pain and fixing fractures. Commonly used dressing materials are bandages, triangular towels, gauze pads and so on. If you don't have special dressing materials, you can use local materials and use clean towels, handkerchiefs, sheets, clothes, masks and ties as temporary dressing materials.

The dressing method of traumatic bleeding is as follows:

Disinfection: Wash and disinfect the wound with disinfectant found at home or clean tap water.

Hemostasis: let the injured person sit in a comfortable place, comfort the patient and improve the injured limb, cover the wound with sterile gauze, press the dressing by hand, and apply appropriate pressure to help stop bleeding.

Bandage: If there is no bleeding on the dressing, it means that the wound has basically stopped bleeding and should be tied tightly with a bandage. Tie the knot and avoid the wound.

Small and deep wounds should not be bandaged casually. The wound should be treated after debridement and disinfection, and the injured should be sent to the hospital for further examination and treatment, and tetanus antitoxin should be injected.

If it is superficial abrasions and abrasions, first clean the wound with soap and water, then apply antibacterial ointment, and then stick a band-aid or bandage.
