Control of bleeding
Bleeding wound.
Wounds that are bleeding heavily involve important blood vessels and wounds that bleed in a pulsatile manner involve arterial damage. Both of these wounds need immediate veterinary attention.
Bleeding can be controlled temporarily by the application of a pressure bandage. A sterile, absorbent dressing is applied directly to the wound with a pad of absorbent cotton dressing and this is bandaged firmly in place.
Your vet should be called immediately.
