When possible, you should use a clean dry cloth, even a shirt, scarf, necktie, etc. However, if an artery has been cut, you will likely have to use your bare hand(s) until you can grab or obtain a cloth. Any time a wound bleeds profusely, or the wound is pumping blood (sign of arterial bleed), the wound requires immediate pressure.NOTE: The scalp has a huge supply of blood vessels.
