Signs and symptoms that someone needs first aid vary greatly. If someone has fallen, pain somewhere in the body can mean that first aid is needed. If someone is laying on the floor and not responding, is bleeding from a cut, choking on food, or a host of other things, it is a sign that first aid is needed. First aid can be anything from putting a band aid on a minor cut to giving CPR. In order to know what first aid is needed for what sign or symptom, first aid training is available.

How do you treat crushing wounds?
In basic first aid just splint the wound above and below, check the pulse distal to the injury and head to the hospital. If the injury crushed more muscle than bone, you're in a heap of trouble. If it's more of less a bone fracture, you'll be okay. Still head to the hospital though.

Why should first aid treatment be given to someone who has had an accident?
First aid should be given in an effort to prevent further injury. If the injury from the accident is relatively small, first aid may work as a final fix. For a larger injury, basic first aid can help to forestall further injuries. For these larger injuries, the injured party should visit a hospital to ensure they get the most complete treatment for their injury, but first aid prior to the hospital visit can help to prevent further injury.

Which injury suggests heat as a first aid treatment?
Heat is usually not a good option for first aid. Within the first 72 hours after an injury, ice is usually best since it decreases inflammation. However, if you pull a muscle or are experiencing muscle spasms (repeated and frequent sharp muscle pains) then heat may be ideal for a day or so since it may relieve some muscle tightness, decrease the spasms and abate the pain. Although the heat may increase inflammation and congestion in an area, the desire to abate serious pain and stop the continuation of spasms supersedes this worry. Hypothermia is another obvious time to use heat as first aid.
Why there is need for first aid?
