Bleeding: If it is the only place where it is bleeding it may be some excess dryness . However if it persists despite local therapy. He should be seen by his doctor. He may need test to see why he continues to bleed. If he bleeds easily from other sites like when he brushes his teeth, he definitely should be seen.

KEEP PRESSURE : Take a clean cloth or napkeen and put pressure on the cut with your hand firmly, it will stop the bleeding immidiately and maintain the pressure for few minutes and remove the pressure if it is still bleeding repeat the same again and that will stop the bleeding i f the cut is big, take him to er for stitches .The cuts in mouth and lips bleed more than skin cuts if bleeding takes long, need blood tes.
