Q. Ground coffee to stop bleeding really works! I just punctured my pointer finger fairly deeply with a fillet knife and it bled profusely. I had my skeptical husband coat the wound with ground coffee. This weird but effective treatment made believers out of this household.
A. A severe puncture wound requires prompt medical attention, but we’re glad the coffee remedy worked. We recently heard that ground coffee could stop bleeding from minor household cuts. Other kitchen remedies for cuts include ground black pepper and ground sage.
