lol your suppose to put salt in the wound to make it stop bleeding becase salt is like Anti-water. It will dry the area. But don't do it because its only for amry medics and doctors if its needed. Its only for a last resort if like you have a gunshot wound and you need to stop the bleeding until you can get to a hospital you put salt on it and a bandage. Dont you watch army movies :P But truthfully its salt, don't put anything else on it. Salt hurts like hell too
it is salt because it dries up water
Yes sugar would help to clot the blood and start a scab, however, I would advise you to only use that as a last resort.
