Exactly! That's what the medic said. She said how are you going to manage this? Your hands are probably wet with water and blood, the area of the wound is covered in the same, and you have to dry up any excess before using the quikcot.

Her advice is just do your best. Get the bleeding stopped, be careful and get the job done.
