X2 on flour, corn starch works also.

I have whole wheat flour, not white flower. Think that would work? Also arrowroot powder instead of corn starch. It's a pretty deep hole. It won't hurt her to have this stuff in her body will it?

The idea is to put enough on the outside so it will clot and stop bleeding. I wouldn't try to fill the hole with flour. Whole wheat should be fine.

Here is a quick reference page to check out for alternatives...

Thank you guys. I just went in and checked it. As soon as I removed the bandage, it started ppuring out blood again. I had my son put a pinch or 2 of arrowroot powder on it for me while I held the bandage back and then immediately covered it again. She's resting in a carrier in the bathroom right now, in the dark to keep her calm. I'll check it again in an hour or so. I never expected her to bleed like this. The hole in the bottom of her foot was easily twice as big, deeper, and didn't bleed anywhere near this much :/

I had Ariel back in surgery today. The bumble foot on the bottom of her foot is healing wonderfully but she had another lump, along the side of her toe. I left it go when I did surgery before because I thought it was just swelling. Well, I dug it out today since it was obviously a hard lump now. This core that came out was big too but it's not white like the other one was. This one was more grey-ish.I'm wondering if it was a cyst? Anyway, what a horrible place to have one! I swear, there must be an artery there. She will not stop bleeding! I held pressure on it, tried squeezing around her ankle as a pressure point. I finally just bandaged it thick and tight and added a cotton ball for extra pressure. I have her laying on my lap with her foot held up in the air, above heart level. Any advice on how to encourage the blood to clot? I really need to get some stiptic powder. ..

old time farmers also used cobwebs from the barn, i've used cobwebs myself, if you can get a bunch it does work
