If the skin on arms and hands gets pinched blood appears close to the surface of the skin but the skin doesn't bleed?
It sounds like you're bruising very easily; that would be more normal if it happens on an elderly person (fragile skin), but not for a young or middle-aged person. If you're not elderly you may have a vitamin deficiency (possibly vitamin K, which is essential for clotting), or possibly a liver issue. Probably best to see a GP, just to be on the safe side
What else can I help you with?
When you cut your self do you lose weight?
No, cutting yourself does not result in weight loss. Weight loss is achieved through a combination of healthy eating, exercise, and overall lifestyle choices, not through self-harm. If you are struggling with self-harm, it is important to seek help from a mental health professional.
What happens if you fall and hurt your knee?
This depends on how you fall. If you scratch or cut your knee, you will most likely bleed. If you bang your knee, then you will most likely get a bruise. If you bend or twist your knee in an unnatural way, then you could break, sprain, fracture, of rupture the ligaments or bone that makes up your knee.
How long can a person live without a heart?
I think what you are asking is how long you'd still be conscious if your heart were instantly removed a la Apocalypto or that Indiana Jones movie with the human sacrifice. There were experiments conducted with those who were beheaded by a guillotine, coming out to something like 30 seconds consciousness post-separation to the extent that the disembodied head would react to stimuli. This situation doesn't really apply to heart removal. Keep in mind, there are people who have lived with a still heart, surviving solely on the muscle contractions of arteries to circulate blood. Since the great vessels at the heart would be open in the case of a removal, the victim would bleed out very quickly, but the muscle contractions of the Carotid artery feeding the brain would keep the brain supplied with blood for a little while until blood pressure was no longer sufficient for blood flow to take place. So, probably about a minute until the heartless one couldn't respond to stimuli and an unknown amount of time until consciousness faded and stimuli could no longer be sensed. If, on the other hand, the great vessels were instantly connected in such a way as to permit normal blood flow and zero blood loss, the contractions of arteries would allow the heartless one to live much longer, especially if they laid down to take the vertical pumping load away (the amount of energy required to pump blood from the bottoms of your feet to the top of your scalp is amazing).
What happens to a brain tumor patient if he hit his head really hard?
If a person with a brain tumour hits their head hard, the consequences can vary depending on factors such as the location, size, and type of tumor, as well as the force of impact. Here are some possible outcomes: Increased Intracranial Pressure: A hard impact on the head can lead to increased pressure inside the skull. This can be especially problematic for someone with a brain tumor because the tumor may already be causing pressure on surrounding brain tissue. Worsening Symptoms: The impact can exacerbate existing symptoms related to the brain tumour, such as headaches, nausea, vomiting, seizures, changes in vision, balance problems, or cognitive difficulties. New Symptoms: It's possible for the impact to cause new symptoms or neurological deficits, depending on the area of the brain affected and the extent of damage. Bleeding or Swelling: In some cases, a head injury can cause bleeding or swelling in the brain, which can be particularly dangerous for someone with an existing brain tumor. Emergency Situation: A severe head injury in a brain tumor patient may require immediate medical attention, including imaging studies (such as CT scans or MRIs) to assess the extent of damage and determine the appropriate treatment. Treatment Adjustments: Depending on the outcome of medical evaluation, treatment for the brain tumor may need to be adjusted to address any new complications or changes in the tumor's status. It's essential for individuals with brain tumors to take precautions to prevent head injuries, such as wearing protective headgear during activities that carry a risk of head trauma. Any significant impact to the head should be evaluated by a healthcare professional promptly, especially in the context of a pre-existing brain tumor.

Check for a pinched brake line. If the line has been pinched and you use the brakes, the pinched line will hold pressure and not release the brake fluid like it should. That will cause the brake to overheat (it's like driving with the brake on) and freeze up.
