Before someone says it, sanitary napkins or tampons are NOT the best thing for bullet wounds. I will copy and paste the post that I keep have to do every few weeks when reddit inevitably starts jerkin that circle:

If you have to improvise a wound dressing for gunshot and all you have are tampons, then yes. Stuff SEVERAL in the wound to compress the surrounding tissues and stifle bleeding/promoting coagulation.

THE REAL step number one for any severe bleeding is call 911 (or for medevac depending on your circumstances), then apply direct pressure, preferably with barriers like gloves, goggles, and mask in between you and the injured persons blood.

Tampons are not made to absorb the amount of flow that comes out of a GSW, and they are not sterile. Again they would not be the first choice for a GSW, but better than nothing.

First choice would be properly preparing by ordering these products and placing them in your first aid kid and/or range bag.

  1. First Aid Kit This one is adequate for multi-day trips and as a base to build on.

  2. Tourniquet Adequate, learn how to use it, and practice one-handed in case of disabling injury.

  3. Celox Injector for Penetrating Injury Good for stabs and very large pokes as well as GSW.

  4. Chest Seals Good for sucking chest wound to treat/prevent collapsed lungs.

    Above all, learn and know First Aid and CPR, use the four (five) firearms safety rules, and avoid situations in which gunfire might be exchanged.

    If you have any questions I will be happy to answer them.
