The Brachial Artery. Yet direct pressure applied directly to the wound or a tourniquet is more effective at stopping arterial bleeding.
Tourniquets are not used any more because they cut off all blood flow to the limb therefore depriving the limb of Oxygen, sugar, heat, and of course the body's defence against infection, (lymphocytes), and the much needed platelets for the coagulation of blood. If cells are deprived of these things they will die, (necrosis), which will result in gangrene and an amputation.

It is actually pretty serious if you continue to let it grow. you should go to the doctor for a check upANSWER:Inflated arteries (as opposed to Blocked or Collapsed Arteries) are call [Forgot for a moment] but are extremely dangerous since the artery is pumping more and more blood to the same artery - building up pressure - and if it expands too much then it will burst or start bleeding out. This is extremely life threatening - if the artery is the one coming from the heart - since if they burst you will bleed to death in minutes.If it happens in a non-major artery it is not life threatening immediately, but should seek help asap.
