Frequently Asked Questions

How to dress and bandage a wound?

First Aid: Bandaging
A cover for a cut or wound helps to stop bleeding and prevent infections. Dressings are pads made from cotton or another material that can be used to soak up blood and other fluids. Bandage covers keep dressings in place.

Step 1. Dress the wound
Wear gloves or use other protective gear to prevent contact with the victims’ blood. Wash the wound with mild soapy water.
If you want to use an antibiotic ointment, apply a thin layer of it.
Cover the entire wound with a clean bandage. Gauze dressings breathe for faster healing. Nonstick dressings prevent wounds from sticking to them.
If blood soaks through the dressing, place another dressing over the first one.

Step 2. Cover the bandage

Cover the wound with a bandage made from rolled gauze or cloth strips.
Make sure to extend the bandage at least one-and-a-half inches past each side of the dressing.
Don’t wrap the dressing too tightly so that it interferes with the circulation to the wound.

Step 3. Secure the bandage
Tape the bandage in position.
Don’t wrap the bandage too tightly so that fingers or toes turn white or blue.

Step 4. Check circulation
After applying a compression bandage, check for circulation in the affected part of the body every few minutes and then later on. If circulation is poor then the skin may appear pale or blue or feel cool. If you experience numbness and tingles, then you may be experiencing signs of poor circulation.
If circulation is reduced (e.g., if there is decreased blood flow), then loosen the band If symptoms persist, see a doctor.
