WoundSeal 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

This powder works amazing, especially if you’re on blood thinners

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.

This stuff is absolutely amazing when you need it! Originally ordered this to have on hand for my dad who is taking Coumadin, and bleeds easily; but, I totally peeled back the skin off an area about the size of quarter on the back of my knuckle, when a wrench slipped, while I was adjusting my bandsaw.- blood was flowing everywhere rather rapidly - so I went upstairs, to where my wife was, and she grabbed and opened one of the packets of WoundSeal Powder, and began sprinkling it over the wound. The stuff looks like sienna colored dirt (my wife says finely ground cinnamon bark, without the smell). It immediately stopped the flow of blood everywhere she sprinkled; we missed a spot on one edge - but, it quickly stopped when we pushed some excess powder into the very minute opening! But, the most amazing thing is the fact that the powder formed an instant "scab" on the wound - which was very stable - and it healed twice as fast as what I expected - and appears that I may not end up with a scar. I definitely recommend this stuff to anyone, as it is easy to carry with you, due to the small size of the packets - you can even carry one in your wallet - or you can simply place one of the small plastic boxes of 4 packets in your first aid kit. Told a friend, who is a truck driver, about it, and he immediately ordered some to carry in his truck!

The way this is packaged makes it difficult to apply a precise amount in a particular location. You have to shake the dispensing tube and this doesn't allow an even and accurate distribution. But the product itself does a good job of clotting blood.

Pretty sure the manufacturer would frown on using expired product, but I finally had a use for this tonight. It was expired, but it worked! I was an idiot and sliced my thumb tonight. I’m not sure it needed stitches, but I really didn’t want to go to the ER (too late for urgent care), and it was a relatively small cut that just wouldn’t stop bleeding (maybe it was the serrated knife). I was going to try butterfly strips, but came across the wound powder in my first aid supplies. I had to use it twice, but I probably didn’t use it properly the first time, so I don’t blame the product. Second time is holding. I’m just glad this kind of thing exists, and I’m very glad I didn’t have to go have it taken care of.

I have been using WoundSeal Powder for more than 2 years for a condition I have in which I bleed easily at the slightest bump. I was really tired of the bloody shirt sleeves and pant legs from clumsy passengers on airplanes and other insults to my arms and legs. Then a nurse suggested I try WoundSeal. What a life saver. I stopped bleeding instantly. Usually I do not have to cover the injury with a bandage. One caution. READ the instructions and FOLLOW them. Applying the pressure after application is an important step. It takes a moment but you wind up with a good solid cover over the wound something like an instant scab. Don't worry about removing it. Just let it come off with the scab that forms underneath. I have packets in my workshop, office, glovebox and my shaving kit for when I travel. It's a good product.

WoundSeal Powder is an advanced blood clotting and scab forming agent. It is hypoallergenic and does not cauterize a wound, nor is it painful to use. I've used WoundSeal on several occasions and it has never failed to do the job. Pros: Does not cauterize skin or cause any damage. Does not cause a burning feeling when applied like alcohol does on a cut. It is hypoallergenic. The directions for use are simple and accurate. If stitches are required to close a cut, the "seal" can be removed by soaking it saline or a mild salt solution. It comes with 4 small packets, (in a plastic resealable case) for use on smaller cuts, larger packets can be purchased through the seller for larger cuts and wounds. (I recommend getting at some of the larger packets as well.) Con's: It is hard to find any cons about this product, except for the price. It is one of those things, that you get what you pay for. I wish the price were a little lower, or that there were 6 packets in each box instead of 4.

Must have in your pack! I was hunting flintlock and at the end of the day I got back to camp . I was out side eating pistachio and had my survive gso 4.7 knife it’s like a razor blade sharp . I was trying to get the shell off a pistachio and I cut my thumb real bad almost needed stitch up and I remember I had this in my med pack so I got it out and it was the old kind that you had to cut to pure the powder . So I need more and got this and glade it was a tube with a Screw cap . This stuff save me from going to the er ! It seal and Stitched me up and stop bleeding in 30 Sec . That’s a good thing when your far from a hospital and in the woods of Allegheny national Forest!!

Many products that are readily available in U.S. is not available in Canada. An example is this product that stops gushing wounds. I tried looking at my local pharmacies in southern Ontario and the Pharmacists all gives me a blank look every time. This powder from the product form a cap at the wound to stop the bleeding. Many outdoor enthusiasts use this product. My dad has blood clots that forms a blood blister at the base of foot from the veins. Once it bursts, the bleeding is not easy to stop. The problem was finally resolved from surgery, but before then, we had to go to Emergency more often than not. Having this product before would save a couple of trips to Emergency, hence the recommendation.

Compacted is to on your person . Expensive for a band aid. Works well for scraps.

the blood has to be flowing a bit for it to work

Great item, great price.

It makes quite a mess and it's hard to tell if it really had any effect. My husband is on anti-coagulants, so we are always looking for products that can stop minor cuts and nicks. We used the WoundSeal Powder on a small cut on his finger and the blood kept oozing through it. It might have slowed it down a bit. At least it doesn't sting as much as NuSkin and it washes off pretty easily.
