Stop the bleeding
I have found a cold (tube) ice block usually the best way to stop or reduce bleeding of a mouth injury, plus the calming the child, giving you the ability to then assess the severity og the injury.
I have also tried and confirm the old wives tale of putting sugar on a split lip to stop bleeding. The sugar partially disolves and congeals rapidly, helping the blood flow stop more rapidly... then you have to stop the child from licking their lip to keep the sugar on there! LOL |
