When using digital pressure to stop arterial bleeding, where on the wound should the thumb press?

ANSWER · A

The proximal end is closer to the heart. Blood in arteries flows by the heartbeat, so pressing the proximal artery reduces blood transmission from the heart and reduces bleeding. Choose "proximal artery."
