    Oh I’ve never got close to needing a tourniquet, but it seems like there is a line somewhere in the middle that looks like it’s probably ok but should actually be seen by a professional.

      If it bleeds longer than 10 minutes, if it hurts periodically or constantly or if something persists without getting better for more than 3 days, go to a doctor. If it’s really bad, go earlier (tooth pain for example can get debilitating quickly).

      If you are at cancer risk (40+), get periodic check ups.
