    Apply pressure to the wound for atleast 15 minutes, observe if it's still bleeding, and if it's then go to the emergency room because the gash may be deeper then you cosidered and you may need stitches! Good Luck

    Honey, if its on your foot then theres constant pressure applied to the area. It should stop in a few days. keep your foot up for a few hours. guranteed it'll stop. don't worry your foot wont fall off!

    Try hydrogen peroxide on wound to clean it out, dry it apply pressure with a clean cotton or cloth, elevate the foot and read a book. By the time you have read three chapters it will stop bleeding. Band help the cut.

    since it's not gushing its not that bad, but if it continues to bleed like this it might be.. apply a dressing to the site, then apply direct pressure, then elevate the extrimity.... it could also still be bleeding because sometimes when you pull a bandage off it peels the scab back off..........
