Line 11:

Once you are sure you are looking at your ''own'' condition, the list of priorities are:

# Are you currently bleeding~~? If so, how badly~~?

# Are you currently bleeding?

# Have you lost blood? If so, how much?

# Are you in pain? If so, is it hurting your combat effectiveness?

Line 37:

The medic may ask you to remove your tourniquets yourself near the end of your treatment. This is because when a tourniquet is removed it goes into the inventory of the person who did it, and you kinda need to keep your tourniquets.

=== Fractures ===

Sometimes, a limb will become '''fractured'''. This is indicated by a red diagram of your bone appearing in the relevant limb. Despite how scary is looks, it isn't fatal, nor does it within of itself incur bleeding. A leg fracture is less important than an arm fracture, since you need your arms to shoot, unless your squad is planning to move out soon. Use a '''Splint''' on the relevant limb to stabilize it (in ACE terms it functionally just returns the limb to it's original state).
