List two ways of controlling bleeding?

Answer 1

The treatment for bleeding from a first aid point of view is through direct pressure. Apply a thick bandage and bind it into place with a crepe/roller bandage. To further minimise bleeding, elevate the limb. This causes resistance for the blood therefore decreasing bleeding.

It is always important that any severe bleeding be checked out by a doctor. This is to ensure no complications are present.
