1 Control the bleeding before trying to clean the wound. 2  Remove or cut clothing from around the wound. 3  Remove any jewelry from the general area of the wound so if the area swells, the jewelry will not affect blood flow. 4  Apply steady, direct pressure and elevate the area for a full 15 minutes. If blood soaks through the cloth, apply another one without lifting the first. 2  If there is an object in the wound, apply pressure around the object, not directly over it. 3  If moderate to severe bleeding has not slowed or stopped, continue direct pressure while getting help. 4  Do not use a tourniquet to stop the bleeding.
