    Thank you very much for the helpful instructions! I have a question: Is there a problem when the wound is still bleeding?

      You will want to have the bleeding stop before applying, this can be done by applying pressure to the area for 5 mins

      ​@@NurseAlyssa39 Thanks again, it worked. The bleeding didn't entirely stop but it was enoguh for me to seal the wound. No inflammation so far. I wish you nice Christmas.

    What do you do if the wound can't be easily pushed together? Does that mean it needs stitches or is there an alternative?

      It honestly depends how deep it is, but it sounds like you need stitches.

      @NurseAlyssa39 Yep, ended up going to a&e and got 15 stitches. Your video was helpful though thanks
