Hæmorrhage.
Hæmorrhage,
when
caused
by
an
artery
being
divided
or
torn,
may
be
known
by
the
blood
issuing
out
of
the
wound
in
leaps
or
jerks,
and
being
of
a
bright
scarlet
colour.
If
a
vein
is
injured,
the
blood
is
darker
and
flows
continuously.
To
arrest
the
latter,
apply
pressure
by
means
of
a
compress
and
bandage.
To
arrest
arterial
bleeding,
get
a
piece
of
wood
(part
of
a
mop
handle
will
do),
and
tie
a
piece
of
tape
to
one
end
of
it;
then
tie
a
piece
of
tape
loosely
over
the
arm,
and
pass
the
other
end
of
the
wood
under
it;
twist
the
stick
round
and
round
until
the
tape
compresses
the
arm
sufficiently
to
arrest
the
bleeding,
and
then
confine
the
other
end
by
tying
the
string
round
the
arm.
A
compress
made
by
enfolding
a
penny
piece
in
several
folds
of
lint
or
linen,
should,
however,
be
first
placed
under
the
tape
and
over
the
artery.
If
the
bleeding
is
very
obstinate,
and
it
occurs
in
the
arm,
place
a
cork
underneath
the
string,
on
the
inside
of
the
fleshy
part,
where
the
artery
may
be
felt
beating
by
any
one;
if
in
the
leg,
place
a
cork
in
the
direction
of
a
line
drawn
from
the
inner
part
of
the
knee
towards
the
outer
part
of
the
groin.
It
is
an
excellent
thing
to
accustom
yourself
to
find
out
the
position
of
these
arteries,
or,
indeed,
any
that
are
superficial,
and
to
explain
to
every
person
in
your
house
where
they
are,
and
how
to
stop
bleeding.
