Cover the sponge with an appropriate dressing and apply direct pressure until bleeding is controlled /stops.
Wrap with a bandage to maintain pressure and seek further veterinary assistance where required.
Following use and where possible, excessive Collaclot should be removed from the wound site. However, as a naturally occurring product (collagen) it will slowly be absorbed by the body.
