When a cut or scrape occurs you need to determine how bad the wound is as well as know how to stop the bleeding. Signs of a dangerous wound include cut veins or arteries or not being able to get the bleeding stopped. Wounds that are deep, have jagged edges or that you cannot get clean should be looked at by a professional medical care provider as soon as possible. If the blood is coming out fast or in spurts apply pressure and seek professional medical help immediately. To stop the bleeding, use a clean, dry cloth and apply pressure to the wound for fifteen minutes. At the end of this time the bleeding should have slowed or stopped. If it has not stopped, continue to apply a firm pressure to the wound.
Once the bleeding has stopped, clean the wound thoroughly with clean water or an antiseptic towelette. Apply an antibacterial cream to the cleaned wound and cover it. Be sure to tape the edges down so dirt and other bacteria cannot enter the wound. Being prepared is a big part of wilderness survival. The other part is making sure you have the needed supplies on hand. Anytime you are dealing with whitetail deer scrapes or performing any other task, especially in the wilderness, have a first aid kit handy and know how to use the supplies in it.
