What causes small amounts of bleeding?

Stitches are used to close a wound before an excess amount of blood is lost. So basically if the wound is bleeding continuously and any attempt to stop the bleeding fails, it is best to bandage it as best as possible and go to the hospital for stitches before too much blood is lost resulting in a temporary black out.
