Whats a good way to stop your lip from bleeding?!
Question: Whats a good way to stop your lip from bleeding.?
I cut my lower lip this morning while shaving -- of course it bleeds and bleeds and bleeds and bleeds. The problem is even more of a headache for me because I use Warfarin/Coumadin which further impairs the bloods ability to form clots. The cut is not large, but just a pain to bandage since its on your lip -- I've been switching around bandages and gauze all morning... if it wasn't such a pain to get off, I'd brush a light coat of super glue over it ;) I tried putting some hot wax over it and it sort of works, but it's not adhesive enough to the lip. Any other tips/ideas.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
if you take warfarin, you should already know this... anyway, you must apply firm continuous pressure to the cut for a minimum of twenty minutes... if it hasn't stopped at that point, you are going to have to see a doctor. When you are on warfarin, a small cut like that can cause severe blood loss, suggest you get an electric shaver.Health Question & Answer
if it is a clean cut I would suggest you apply a steristrip (you can get these from the phrmacist ot your firstaider) and put that on it to keep it closed. Applying pressure to a wound normally works if you apply it long enough but this may take a long time as you take anticoagulants
