If you watch the beginning of

Starchaser: The Legend of Orin

People are in underground mines and they are told that if you go up you are digging closer to Hell & they do not know about the world above them

Tim Ozman has suggested something similar to that they might tell people that they are going to go to sleep for a long time then wake up underground in the planet Mars but they will really end up underground in earth doing mining work with no monetary pay & just get food & shelter

If you have to then take off your own shirt to wrap around the wound if you can not access clean laundry and go to the emergency room without a shirt on driven by a friend

But clean clothes are better

Paper most likely will not work it should be cloth

@graf @brimshae @LordMordred @Will2Power

"about 3 feet of toiletpaper wrapped around it"

Take Clean laundry or clothes that you are willing to get bloody and ruin and wrap it around the wound instead of flimsy toilet paper then have soneone elsr drive you to an emergency room

Toilet paper will not work because it absorbs water very quickly conpared to a clean white undershirt

@graf
Also if you leave a tourniquet on too long and or tight you can lose the limb by cutting off blood flow

I think you should bandage it and apply pressure until you get to an emergency room but not use a turniquet

I am assuming a very specific meaning of turniquet that you might not mean

If it is not as serious as it sounds pseudoephedrine might reduce bleeding but increase risk of a potential fatal heart problem due to increased blood pressure. It is used for nose bleeds.

Neosporin

@graf

You might want someone else to drive you to an emergency room so that you can hold the bandaging and pressure on the wound yourself

@graf

Hospital or other wound treatment specialist with mainstream medical credentials

There was this invention called a flip phone and you could close it so it is harder to press the buttons with your pocket keys but sometimes thin cards could slide through the closed openings

This flip phone invention had physical buttons on the inside instead of a virtual touch screen keyboard

Some of them can access the internet supposedly

And they still sell them new in some places in USA
