Reply to comment by davtruss in when a limb gets amputated, how do they stop the flow of blood? by EnchantedCatto

unless you are first aid trained i reckon follow the advice of the medical professionals that guide you through it after you call 111

If you don't stop arterial bleeding until after you've gotten through to the emergency service, then the person will bleed out 10-20 times.

Ps: You can realistically only bleed out 1 time....
