To help stop bleeding in the thigh, you can compress the femoral artery, which runs along the inner thigh. To do this, apply firm pressure with your fingers or palm to the area just below the groin, where the artery is closest to the skin. This can help reduce blood flow to the affected area and control bleeding until medical help arrives. Always seek professional medical assistance for serious injuries.
