    Ok, I was thinking of smaller bleeds that that.

    My attempt at knee surgery with the edge of my ski for example. Messy and needed tidying up by a (rather lovely, swiss) seamstress, but hardly life threatening.

    still nope.


    pressure and elevation for your knee. just a bit of claret, tbh.
    Well yes but I had to get off the, (yeah I'm calling it) rather gnarly bit of hill...which is tough with an elevated knee :p

    We actually cobbled something together from a rather cheap and battered small first aid kit which was a lesson to us all in how useful they can be.
    why didn't you just use a hankie and some insulting tape?
    I like the idea of insulting tape. If he'd unrolled a bit would it start saying things like "Call yourself a skier? You fell over you ****ing numpty and now you're hurt. You deserve it you stupid ****"

    Wandering even further off topic, got a rec on how to remove a tick if you don't have access to tweezers or one of those specifically shaped card things. Just start wiggling it gently side to side with your finger on its fat arris and eventually it detaches itself. Mind you, yet to test this myself. And hope I never have to.


    Covering it in vaseline or in butter works aparently.

    Tick removers, or something that can emulate them like a fork or similar, work by you rotating the “prongs” around the insect. I’ve read many times of advice to cover it in Vaseline, whisky, even burn it but I believe that doing and of that has a risk of the beast digging in harder. I’ve used a “tick twister” with great success - highly recommend carrying one when there’s a risk of getting bitten by one.

    Seriously - honey is the way forward for minor bits: small cuts, insect bites, grazes, etc.

    Natural, healing, works utterly brilliantly as an antiseptic.

    Use it all the time as its mega cannelloni.

    Naturally medical stuff not out of a jar from Sainsburys......

    Lot more blood with leeches. Does it do anything for the clotting?

    nope - clotting is a physicsl chemicsl process

    its just an excellent antiseptic.

    its also a great chatting point as you're using it which distracts the patient which reduces their stress levels which is A Good Thing.

    I think you might have missed the point about the leech bite. No one is stressed. They just have a bite that won't stop bleeding. They're not going to die. They're just going to get messy clothes and messy other stuff and would prefer not to.

    Negatory Papa Smurf. Use the handle to stoke the fire, with intermittent beatings to the genitals. Then throw the remains over the fence.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

    they're stressed because something they are a'feared of his bitten them, leeched itself onto their body, sucked their blood while pumping them full of toxins, they're hot, sweaty, tired, hungry and some ridiculously handsome geezer is laughing at them.

    They won't die straightaway but there is amassive risk of infection and #badstuff.

    nose bleeds use a specialised designed by doctors for nose bleeds things. not something for menstrual bleeding.

    and we're not talking "picked too many bogies" nose bleeds we're talking max fax.


    if your leech bite is big enough that you think you need to shove a tampon in I suggest that you've actually been bitten by a crocodile.

    leave them to what they are designed for.
    Have you never had a leech bite?
    yes. I used Marlboro Red and honey, my go to treatment.
    Burning isn't recommended although I do find when you have a blood sucking creature attached to you that recommendations can sometimes go out the window.
    I thought the thing was to just wait until they had had their fill, whereupon they let go and slither back to their pond.

    Everything is physics and chemistry.

    The antibacterial property of honey is also derived from the osmotic effect of its high sugar content and low moisture content, along with its acidic properties of gluconic acid and the antiseptic properties of its H2O2
