What should i do/!?!?

Question

my kid just fell off a table and broke his leg, there is blood everywhere and the veins are dangling from his limbs? should i apply ice?

Answer 1

YOU IDIOT TAKE UR SON TO THE HOSPITAL. If he popped a certain vein in his leg he could bleed to death. god, parents these days.

Answer 2

ah yes follow RICE

Rest

Ice

Compression

Elevation

good luck! oh and you should mop up that blood soon before it stains....  

Answer 3

You should call child protective services on yourself.

I know this is a fake question, and I totally see your point making this question. So many people post dumb questions on here when they should consult a doctor. Me and my husband are seriously waiting to see if someone posts a question like this and is serious about it!

Answer 4

Call 911 first. He needs medical attention.

Then do this:

Rest

Immobilize

Cold

Elevate

...An adult has up to 6 litres (11 pints) of circulating  blood. Loss of 0.5 litres (1 pint) causes mild faintness, 1 litre (2 pints) causes faintness, increased pulse rate and shallow breathing. Loss of 1.5 litres (3 pints) leads to collapse, and more than 2.25 litres (4 pints) can be fatal.

Try to stop the bleeding by using the following acronym.

Rest

Ice

Direct pressure

Elevate

If you are unable to stop bleeding, and if your kid collapses, tie a tourniquet around the leg, approximately 3 inches above the wound.
