Dear Pirate, you are right. But for years the Boyscouts and Medics always tied a tournaquet . ( a lot of nerve damage was done my that poor practice.)

I thought a tourniquet was only for when the bleeding was too profuse.

Bottle feeding babies is healthier than breastfeeding- now it's proven that bottle feeding is much worse, and children end up with developmental issues, allergies and predispositions to all kinds of diseases.
