CURAD BloodStop® Wound Dressing | 1” x 1” | Hemostatic Gauze Helps top Bleeding Quickly | for Cuts, Abrasions or Nosebleeds | 10 Count

These are really wonderful to have on hand with your first aid supplies. Being an nurse, I saw how well they worked for stopping a cut from bleeding.They are useful for small cuts or wounds that won’t stop bleeding after putting more than 10 minutes of firm pressure on them. For example, I cut the top of my finger after putting up my clothes line. It was not deep or large, at most it was a quarter of an inch in size. I knew it didn’t need stitches, but it just kept bleeding no matter how long I put pressure on it. So I cut a square of this material and put it on the cut as directed. The bleeding stopped quickly! Leave it on until the next day or it falls off. You can put a band-aid over it or you can moisten the edges with a wet finger to stay on. Another time, my lip was bleeding after trying to peel dry skin off. This stuff worked beautifully!Caution: this is ONLY for small cuts, not large, deep cuts. It is not meant for those. Always see your healthcare provider or urgent care for a larger, deep wound that need more than home treatment. Also, if you use this and bleeding continues, get help immediately. Or if you slash your finger with a knife go to urgent care!But for the small cuts that don’t stop bleeding, these are great!

I bought this in CVS and I ran out at like 2am on a random Wednesday night so of course I got more from Amazon! This is one of those "must have" items for me since I get a lot of cat scratches. I cut my finger tip on a metal can lid and it's one of those places where it's hard to put a Band-Aid. It's also hard to keep pressure on it to make the bleeding stop.This product is great for that type of paper cut that is also bleeding heavily. This is a small sheet of material that will stick to the wound and help it stop bleeding. It's more precise than a styptic pencil and easy to cover up with a Band-Aid. So you should be able to cover up a wound like that with less than 1 sheet of this stuff. I cut mine to make it fit better. It does need to stay on so you put this on first, then put the Band-Aid on it. Of course change it everyday and make sure it stays clean. (Don't forget to sing "Happy Birthday" while you're washing your hands!! Stay safe!!)Personally, I don't get nosebleeds, but I can see how this would help someone who does get nosebleeds a lot. It's a small piece of stiff mesh that I think is loaded with styptic powder. You know you don't want to do laundry or even spot treat your clothes after that because you'll be dripping blood on whatever white outfit you put on that day. This product helps keep the mess of cuts like that at a minimum! It makes it quicker to bandage and make the bleeding stop. You'll be done quickly so that you don't have to get your freshly bandaged finger all soggy and bloody again by spot treating your bloody clothes! A+ product for saving your fingers and other small cuts with heavy bleeding situations.

After sustaining two injuries in recent years that would have benefited from these strips, I added a box to my first aid kit. Yesterday, I sliced through my finger hard with a new, sharp, serrated knife. I’m generally a big baby with bloody cuts, so it was reassuring to know I had this to help stop the bleeding. I applied pressure, elevated my hand, called a nurse in my family, and she advised me to use one of these with a slightly snug bandaid. I was too freaked out to look closely at the cut, so I just applied one of the strips quickly (I folded it up a bit with my other hand because it was a bit big for the cut), then put a bandaid snugly over it. It stopped the bleeding effectively and formed a protective layer. A day later, it’s a hardened, clear layer that almost feels like a thimble. It’s really protective! Because it seems to be holding the skin together, I have no pain. I gather from other reviews that it will dissolve in a few days. It seems unlikely that I will need another bandaid.Having put this to the test, I’m definitely going to keep some in my car as well as in my hiking and cycling first aid kits.(Sorry for the slightly gross photo, but I was surprised that there were no reviews showing what the product looks like on an actual cut.)

Mom's on blood thinners, works great for nosebleeds, too small for anything more than a small cut. Very tiny, not sure what else it would work for except a kid's tiny cut, but then again for that you don't need tio buy this, just apply pressure. For nose bleeds it works fast.

as described and quick delivery should come in multiple packages.

I’ve purchased several of these & the bandages for older family members on blood thinners. They have used them up & ask me to order more. Great to have around.

I have blood thinners and bleed easily. These work great to stop small cuts!

These are about one square inch, which is perfect for most small cuts. I just sliced my thumb wide open (more than 1 cm in at an angle). It’s the kind of cut where you can feel your heartbeat in the cut, and the blood is pumping out like an overflowing toilet. I’m not exaggerating. After putting pressure on it with toilet paper and then wrapping it with toilet paper and putting a Band-Aid over it (ghetto blood stop, usually works), I realized that blood was pouring out of the end of the Band-Aid all over the floor, seriously, big drops of blood all over the tile.So I went into our first aid kit to find these, put one on the cut after wiping the excess blood off. After a few seconds I noticed blood coming right through the little square, so I thought it wasn’t working, but I waited for a minute or so for it to do its thing and sure enough the blood stopped completely. I wrapped a Band-Aid around my thumb so that it would hold this in place with light pressure. It’s been about 10 minutes since, and there is no blood anywhere to be seen anywhere around or under the Band-Aid; I’m pretty sure I could just take the Band-Aid off right now and it wouldn’t have any chance of bleeding.These little guys fellers magic.
