Why is it that you die when you cut some arteries (or vein) of your hand, but you don't die when your arm is cut?
Are there any measures that can be taken to control bleeding from a wound, specifically from a cut artery or vein in the hand?
Yes, there are several measures that can be taken to control bleeding from a wound. Applying pressure to the wound is one of the most effective ways to control bleeding. Additionally, using a tourniquet or elevating the wound may also help to reduce blood loss.
