If a main artery in the leg is cut how long will it take for you to bleed to death?

If it is the femoral artery, you will bleed out extremely fast. Probably faster than it will take you to get to a hospital. Being the main artery in the leg that comes directly from the aorta, it contains an immense amount of pressure, which means, LOTS of blood.


Can an individual live without their Femoral Artery?

The survivability of a bullet wound to the femoral artery is dependent on many factors. The most important factors are the severity and location of the bleeding and the availability of advanced medical care. The size of the victim, the possibility of infection, and the activity of the victim after being shot are all also extremely important. Serious bleeding from the femoral artery must be properly treated immediately. A few minutes can be all that is necessary for the wound to guarantee permanent disability such as brain damage or the need for amputation. A wound to the upper femoral artery caused by a direct shot from a heavy rifle slug is likely to kill within ten minutes.


Why do arteries function better with thick walls?

Blood vessels that take blood away from the heart are called arteries. The high pressure of the blood pushes strongly on the thick, elastic artery walls. They stretch and shrink as the blood moves through them. This movement of artery walls makes a pulse. When an artery passes close to the skin the pulse can be felt and therefore used to count how fast the heart is beating.

Will you dies fast if your femoral artery gets cut?

Dying from cutting hardly works at all, just a heads up if your'e thinking about it.

Which pressure point stops severe bleeding of upper leg?

The best way to stop bleeding in the upper leg is through direct pressure. Apply a thick bandage and bind this with a crepe bandage. Elevate the leg to make it harder for the blood to pump. This controls the bleeding fairly effectively. Seek for medical attention urgently if an artery is damaged. This may cause death fast if prompt medical attention is not sought.

A cut artery will lose about 1 liter a minute, depending on heart rate.
