Where and what are some pressure points on the arm?

Answer 1

There's one on the thumb-side of your wrist where you can feel your radial artery.

There's one on your elbow, it can "move" on you, but usually you'll feel the pulse on the medial side.

There's a third about halfway up your humerous (If you hold your arm out like you're going to shake some one's hand, it will be on the side facing towards your body). It's easier to feel on infants, but if you push the muscle and fat up you should be able to get it. This, the brachial artery, is the pressure point you generally use to stop bleeding in the arm.

Answer 2

Pressure points are places on the body where arteries lie near the surface and where pressure can be applied to limit severe arterial bleeding.
Arterial bleeding can be identified because blood from arteries is bright red and is pumped in regular spurts as the heart beats. To stop bleeding, pressure is applied by hand to compress the appropriate artery against the underlying bone.
There are actually 2 points on the arm for bleeding of the arm. One is the lower part of the arm near the wrist. The other point is the middle part of the upper arm.
