HI all, I've been having this discussion with a few people, and without any medical training or any real way to figure this out I figured asking on a site like this might get some me some answers. This is based on my severely limited knowledge of medicine and the body. I did try web searches for this information but I was unable to find anything. But, if a limb is lost does the manner in which it was lost affect how quickly the blood is lost? For instance, if a limb is cleanly cut would it bleed out quicker than if the limb were torn or jaggedly cut? As I understand it, if a limb is cleanly cut the veins/arteries are cleanly cut and allow for easy blood loss. If a limb is torn, the muscles tend to contract and since the veins are not cleanly cut the veins/arteries can become constricted and minimize blood loss. Is this correct? I apologize for the morbid post, and I promise I do not intend to dismember anyone. I would just like to clear up some misconceptions and educate mis/un-informed minds. I also apologize if this is not the appropriate forum, I was unsure of where I should post this question. Thanks,
