Of course in a perfect world, yes, you would wash the cut, apply direct pressure to stop the bleeding, cover with Neosporin, and then bandage...but not every situation is perfect. Without easy access to fresh/safe water, Neosporin, appropriate bandaging material, and without the time to acquire these things, you have to improvise. I'm thinking while you're scaling the side of a mountain or after surviving a plane crash in the middle of nowhere.
The superglue method does work. Superglue is also toxic and contains carcinogenic molecules which cause cancer. Do you really want to put that inside your body?
See sources for additional information on danger of superglue. A much safer alternative is surgical glue. Popular brands include Mastisol and Skin-Tac.It's sterile, harmless, and seals small to medium cuts just as quickly and strong as superglue.
I have two recommendations for acquiring surgical glue. 1) Check the diabetic aisle at your local CVS, Rite Aid, Walgreens, etc.2) Ask a friend who works in the medical field to swipe you some that's expired, still safe to use and technically not stealing. You should also check out blot clotting agents, marketed as Quick Relief, Quick Clot.
See sources for links to online retailers.
The best method for me is to wash the cut first, then stop the bleeding with direct pressure. After the bleeding stops, I put Neosporin on the cut and then cover with a bandage. It should heal completely in 3 or 4 days.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
