No Bandages? try using Superglue!....Better than duct tape!

I recentlly and encountered a player who had a slice cut accident, For those of you out there who have no bandages, why not consider using Super glue!

Super glue has been used as a safe quick fix way of mending mild cuts though they have been actually used in combat in The Vietnam war by trained battle hardend medics!

I actually found this method to be a rather quick!...all wounds heal much quiker and will peal away like old dead skin.

If possible, keep a bottle of Loc-tite super glue in the tool box in your car at the ready if this problem is encountered and I do say it is undenably more preffered than old fashioned bandages!

This artical was researched and copied from this link as well as compared from other reviews on the matter.

I put up a poll on the subject of the matter, It may be interesting to know that there have been alternate methods of stopping a bleeding wound.

If I missed anything on how to patch a cut wound, do post it!


How to Use Superglue for Cuts:


If you accidentally cut yourself and don't have access to band aids, gauze or even a butterfly kit, look for some super glue. You can use super glue for cuts in a pinch so that the wound heals and doesn't get infected. This is a permanent fix for cuts that are less than an inch deep and an inch wide. Using super glue on these kind of cuts will keep you out of the doctor's offices as well.

1
Stop the blood for the most part. Take a rag, paper towel, extra napkins, your shirt or whatever you have. Apply direct pressure to the area and if possible raise that part of your body above your chest. Apply the type of pressure you'd apply to a thumb tack when you're putting it into a wall.

2
Once the blood slows significantly, you're ready to close the wound. If you have the water, now would be a good time to use it. Pour the water over the open cut as this will clean it. If you don't have any, that's OK also. Squeeze the two sides of the cut together.

3
While holding both sides of the cut, add a small bead of super glue down the entire length of the cut. Hold cut closed for 3 minutes while the glue dries. If there was excess blood, repeat the process. The glue will stop most of the bleeding and it will close most cuts needing stitches.
