Powder 4 Each (Pack of 3) - Wound Care First Aid for Cuts, Scrapes and Abrasions - Stops Bleeding in Seconds Without Stitches or Bandages - Safe and Effective for People of All Ages and Pets

I have used Wound Seal since the year it was released for sale to the public. In fact, the production originated less than 10 miles from my home! I really like the tube better than the small evelopes, as they are much easier to save for more than one use. No more folding to ensure no loss of product. I've only had one occasion to use an entire envelope on an injury. However, the ones which come in the flat box fit nicely in my handbag & first aid kit, so there are benefits for both styles!

Cut myself bad processing a rooster yesterday. My right hand slipped and cut the vein just below my second knuckle on my left thumb. Put pressure on it til hubs could find the Woundseal stuff. I had bought this stuff right after my last knife wound (yeah, I'm dangerous in the kitchen with sharp pointy things), when I had to get 3 stitches in my finger. I live in a remote area, nearest clinic is over an hour away. Hubs poured a container on the cut, and I put pressure back on it. I hadn't known til today that this stuff is like chemical cauterization. Stings. A lot. But better than bleeding out on my kitchen floor. Put gauze on the cut after, and a very snug bunch of surgical tape to hold the gauze in place, and put pressure on the cut. Made the mistake of removing the dressing like an hour later (the curiosity was killing me), and it started bleeding again, but not as badly. Wash, rinse, repeat. But today, it's not seeping, not infected (it was a very yucky knife covered in chicken ick). I'll take the dressing off in a day or two, so I can clean it and let it air dry out, and stick some Steri-Strips on it. This Woundseal stuff should be in everybody's emergency medical stash. Amazing stuff, really. The blood was flowing heavily, and it stopped it. It would have been fine if I hadn't removed the dressing.I have since ordered a pair of cut resistant gloves.

I have very thin skin and I keep this with me at all times. It is great for emergencies.

Great first aid kit addition

+++Original Review+++It is the item that I ordered, but it did not come packaged like the picture, each 4-pack contained 4 small tubes that look like tiny ointment tubes. I really needed this to come packed in the packets and the plastic case like the picture for our med kits. 2 stars because of the deception.+++UPDATED REVIEW 2018+++Why I raised my rating from 2 stars to 4 stars.I was trimming my dogs nails and cut one too close to the quick. Luckily I had some clotting powder on hand because even though it was a tiny little cut, it was squirting blood out like a windex bottle. This WoundSeal powder and some compression and I was able to get the bloodbath under control. We tried a clotting stick and just compression and raising the wound above the heart, but it just wouldnt stop bleeding. The WoundSeal Powder worked within a minute.So although it did not come packed properly and was a slightly different version than expected, it performed exactly as I needed it to.

IM ON BLOOD THINNERS AND EASY TO BE CUT. THIS STUFF WORKS GREAT.

This work just like advertised! A friend recommended this to my spouse as he is on blood thinners and is always bumping into something and bleeding. It stops it immediately and saves the day!

For those of us in blood thinners, this is a must have! I keep it at home, in all our cars & at work —just in case! A few weeks ago I stubbed my toe on a doorframe; by the time I noticed there was a cut, my bathroom floor looked like a crime scene! It took 3 tubes of this to stop the bleeding on a pinhole of a cut on my toe; but it did stop finally! Thx to author Linda Howard for mentioning the genetic product in a novel or I wouldn’t have known this was out there! Get several pkgs for your first aid kit & glove compartment!
