A member asked:
Can there be any way to clot blood without a wound sticking to the surface?

You mean??: Your question is quite vague but i'll take a shot my best guess is you are wanting to stop bleeding without a dressing sticking to it. The best way to stop bleeding is with direct pressure when it does stop before the dressing clots into a big mess it needs to be changed carefully and cleaned and a non stick dressing applied if severe don't hesitate to seek medical attention.
