I was rush to the ER earlier because I got panic today.
The bleeding is not stopping and every now and then I change the soak plaster of my stitch. I thought I will lose a lot of blood so I called the boyfriend to rush me to the Hospital. Plus I got a fever.
It took an hour for us to have someone check my stitch because they are a lot of patients in the ER plus it's a public Hospital so expect a lot of patients there. When it was my turn, the Doctor asks for a Lab test for me so they can check my Hemoglobin count. One of the surgeons check my stitch and told us again, that is it natural for the stitch to bleed because it's from the veins. I just needed to add some pressure on it and soon it will stop to bleed.
After 6 hours of waiting for the result, they discharge me. At last.
Looks like I overstayed in the ER already.
The photo is me while waiting for the result.

I'm glad you are doing fine right now, it's bad enough your going through a lot with that other condition that you have. Be careful and take care of yourself.

I want to admit myself to the Hospital so that someone will take care of me. If I'm here, I feel restless.

It is still good you went to the ER. It was better to be safe than sorry as the saying goes.

If the bleeding does not stop at once and the color of blood is bright red and is oozing, that is arterial blood. There should be firm pressure applied over the gauze. If the color is dark red, it is venous blood.
May I suggest that you apply firm pressure on the gauze before wrapping your arm with the tight grip. Thank you.

@JustBhem but is your wound covered with sterile gauze then the tight grip over it?
