When stopping bleeding for the wounded in an emergency, use compression first, then other methods based on the bleeding situation.

ANSWER · A

In emergencies, use compression first, then other methods based on the bleeding situation. Digital pressure can be used to press the artery above the bleeding point (closer to the heart) with the thumb to close the blood vessel and interrupt blood flow.
