First Aid

No,because it will infected it or it will hurt an you will start icing it

Medically speaking, any stab or serious wound to the body can kill or cause serious injury.

The most important factor in determining this is what internal damage the stab has done to the body. Internal damage may include arterial damage, venous damage, nerve ending damage and a lot more other complicated problems.

The main cause of death from stab wounds is severe bleeding and consequently developing hypovolemic shock. Hypovolemic shock is a form of shock where the a significant amount of blood loss has been suffered.

If you are stabbed in the armpits (axilla) or any other body part for that matter, apply firm pressure using a gauze dressing and raise it above the heart if it is a limb. If the blade is still embedded, DO NOT remove it. Simply pad around it and wrap a roller (crepe) bandage. Be prepared to see a jet of blood spurting from the wound if the blade has severed an artery. The blood from an arterial wound will be bright red and could spray more than a metre from the patient.

Any stab wound requires urgent medical intervention. Call the ambulance immediately and alert the ambulance personnel to the nature of the scene so they can inform the police.

If you have just been stabbed, remember that the attacker could still be lurking around. It is paramount that you alert both the police and ambulance to the scenario.

Get some twezers -- flat headed ones are nice. Get a GOOD grasp on the body of the tick and exert a slow, steady pull. After a time (as much as 10 minutes, so be patient), that slow steady pull will generally extract him just fine. Once extracted, make sure it's alive and seems to have all its parts. The trick here is to take all the time you need in order to extract the tick ALIVE, so it doesn't leave parts of itself behind in the wound, which invariably causes infection. So take your time, get a good grip, and try hard not to crush the tick or tear it in half.' If you DO leave part in the wound, the literature say contact a doctor for removal. More folksy remedies say it'll form a pimple and pop out of it's own accord, or you can go after it like a splinter. The solution is up to you. Tick lore is rampant, and a lot of it is either silly or dangerous. Here are some examples of the dangerous ones to avoid: * DONT try and burn the tick out with a lit cigarette, matches, etc. The legend is the tick will sense the warmth, unburrow, and hurry away. The reality is you'll have a burn to go with your now-dead tick. * DONT try to poison the tick with alcohol. That'll kill hm and mak ehim a LOT harder to extract intact. * Don't use mineral oil to lubricate on the way out. This just kills the tick too, and it makes your tweezers slippery. No conversaiton about ticks would be complete without remarks on Lyme's disease, and no discussion on Lyme's disease would fit in this answer, so I'll leave you with this: If, in a week you get a flu that lasts 7-8 days and disappears -- then reappears -- you might want to talk to a doc. And... Sheep ticks are not the primary carriers of Lyme's. So for now don't worry.

In many cases, seeds are good food. However, in uncommon cases, seeds may contain various toxins. For example, both appleseeds and the germ in the center of an apricot pit contain cyanide. Note that the dosage in appleseeds would require you to eat quite a few before toxicity sets in.

It depends on the depth of the cut, where the cut is, and who has been cut. Here are some options: Stop the bleeding by direct pressure and seek medical attention as soon as possible. Let a medical professional evaluate the injury and determine if a suture or more will be necessary. Let the medical provider clean and dress the wound. A tetanus shot may also be in order. Some really nasty lacerations have been know to nick or even sever tendons, the latter of which will strip an individual of the ability to move a given joint. Apply direct pressure until a pressure dressing can be applied. Seek medical attention. Apply some kind of pressure dressing and keep it in place for several hours. Change it some time later being careful to remove it without opening the wound. Get in to the clinic to have it looked at. These are just some options. The first one is arguably the best.

Symptoms of shoulder sprain may include:

Pain, tenderness, and swelling around the shoulder

Redness, warmth, or bruising around the shoulder

Limited ability to move the shoulder and increased pain with movement

Bruises are not open wounds. Do I pass? :}

NO! that didnt help me with my question. im not the one who typed in the question but it still didnt help me with my question cuz, i too, needed to kno that answer.

The acronym R.I.C.E. means Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation.

For the most part, a simple scrape will give you what's called "Capalary bleeding", surface bllod vessels that will not cause any life threatening problems. Other possibilities would be Arterial bleeding (bleeding from an artery - possibly life thretening) where the blood will be bright red and will spurt from the wound in time with the heartbeat. Also would be Veinous bleeding (bleeding from a vien) where the blood will be very dark red or purple, and will flow freely.

What is happening is if your hand is bent (or too much pressure is on it) it blocks or you could say kinks the nerve. If your nerve is kinked long enough it stops all feeling in your hand until the kink is all of the way out when you let up on the pressure. Then your nerve is back to normal and you have feeling in your hand agian.

The Public Health Nurse bag technique is a method nurses use during a home nursing visit. A health bag is used to avoid the spread of infection when treating a patient.

Re-fried beans can't be used to treat burns.

The (unbroken) skin is a natural surface barrier to infection. Then, first aid items such as pads, plasters and bandages, used with antiseptic creams or lotions.

an abrasion is a scrape or a graze.

usually it is on the right side but either that or the one that increases by the number slower.

The most common litter is cigarette butts!

First aid is the provision of initial care for an illness or injury. It is usually performed by a lay person to a sick or injured patient until definitive medical treatment can be accessed. Certain self-limiting illnesses or minor injuries may not require further medical care past the first aid intervention. It generally consists of a series of simple and, in some cases, potentially life-saving techniques that an individual can be trained to perform with minimal equipment.

this burn is propably 1st dagree- superfical

-put under cold water for 10-20min

-put a ice pack on

first aid to uninjured people

I just checked on band-aid products from SIX different companies in my first aid cupboard. ALL of them have a manufacturer address and 5 even have phone numbers . -If I was you, I'd look on the box for these .
