i am praying for you Bubba, every day. i am on blood thinners also and if i scratch myself working on the car its really fun with blood running down my hand or arm. i use a tefla pad, spray Afrin on the wound and then on the tefla pad and then use some of the nonstick brown sticks to itself tape to hold the tefla pad in place. do not use a bandied as that will move the skin around the wound when peeled off and start the bleeding again. Afrin in a nose spray but it is a "constrictant" and works well in constricting blood vessels of bleeding skin wounds. works well for me and i am on Plavics for a stent and Eleqis for AFIB
