If you get you tongue pierced and it goes through a vein how will you stop the bleeding?
Basic First Aid 1) remove the jewellery 2) apply gauze and direct pressure to the area 3) wait with pressure applied, the body will attempt to form clots to stop the bleeding. Do not try to reinsert the jewellery once the bleeding stops, this will cause the bleeding to re-occure.
Should you apply pressure when for a injury with profuse bleeding?
Yes, you should apply direct pressure to a bleeding injury to help control profuse bleeding. Use a clean cloth or bandage and press firmly on the wound, maintaining pressure until help arrives or the bleeding stops. If blood soaks through the cloth, do not remove it; instead, add more layers on top to avoid disrupting any clotting. If possible, elevate the injured area above the level of the heart to further reduce bleeding.

When using the emergency bandage why do you reverse the wrapping direction and continue bandaging the wound once the elastic bandage is placed through the pressure bar?
The pressure bar increases the pressure on the wound, thus crushing the veins and arteries and stopping the wound from bleeding. The reverse action of the pressure bar and pulling the dressing over the top of the pressure bar multiplies the pressure over the wound.
List two ways of controlling bleeding?
The treatment for bleeding from a first aid point of view is through direct pressure. Apply a thick bandage and bind it into place with a crepe/roller bandage. To further minimise bleeding, elevate the limb. This causes resistance for the blood therefore decreasing bleeding. It is always important that any severe bleeding be checked out by a doctor. This is to ensure no complications are present.

Do you need to use a tourniquet if you shoot into the veins in your hand?
If you shoot into the veins in your hand, applying a tourniquet is generally not necessary unless there is significant arterial bleeding or if the bleeding cannot be controlled through direct pressure. It's crucial to apply direct pressure to the wound to help stop the bleeding. However, if the injury is severe, especially if there is a risk of losing a limb or if the bleeding is profuse, a tourniquet may be warranted. Always seek immediate medical attention in such situations.
