How to Numb Pain from a Cut

You have got wounded, probably from some unwanted event, and have a cut wide open from some part of the body and you want to lower the pain caused by the disconnection of nerves. You will have to first generate a level of tolerance for that. You will have to understand that accidents are part of life and overreacting will only worsen the scenario. You should always carry a first aid box with you everywhere you go so that you don’t have to fuss around to find some basic equipment that will be required to numb the pain at the first place. Just hold your breath and don’t cry. Understand that cuts are normal and you will heal up in few moments; maybe it will leave a scar but that can also be removed with the help of laser technology. So, there is nothing to worry. The damage has been done, just chill and figure a way out to collect the first aid equipment. The first aid kit that you should carry with you should contain:

Gauze pads (at least 4 x 4 inches),
