If you see any limb is not grey, and you see the bleeding indicator, quickly review all non-grey limbs. Any limb with a wound that is '''''not''''' an '''Abrasion''', '''Contusion''', or '''Bruise''' is likely causing bleeding. If such a limb ''only'' has those 3, it can be ignored for the time being.
