      You could use a laser to stop the bleeding. Some people claim they can be used to speed up healing too, but I’m not convinced.

      I’ve been watching the A&E programme on TV recently, and it seems that any wound that is fatal is often part of a complicated set of injuries. I agree with Tom about the stopping bleeding part.
