If the wound won't stop bleeding, even after you disinfected it and put pressure on it, you may need to have a doctor or nurse practitioner look at it. There are many walk-in clinics these days, and a wound that continues to bleed needs to have a professional give it a look.

I would basically first clean it out with either soap and water that way to help clean out the wound to help prevent the onset of infection, as well to help promote healing. Then put a band-aid on it, if no band-aids are available just apply pressure, using a clean napkin or paper towel. As pressure will help promote the stoppage of bleeding.

Apply pressure FIRST for 10-15 minutes. Do not pick at it. Do not peek at it. Rinse under water. Pat dry and apply a bandaid or non-stick bandage. IF it continues to bleed, see a doctor.

**Never, ever pick or cut a mole or wart. They have a highly vascular area--meaning, lots of little blood vessels--so they bleed a lot.

When a plantar wart comes out will it bleed?

Yes, the wart virus taps into the capillaries. So if you cut them deep enough, you probably will see a small bit of blood. This is the capillary supplying blood to the wart virus. I DO NOT RECOMMEND CUTTING THEM OFF YOURSELF! You could spread the wart virus, and re-infect yourself!
