Detailed explanation-1: -Not only is capillary bleeding the least severe, but it is also the easiest to control because it comes from blood vessels on the surface rather than from deep inside the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Capillary bleeding occurs in all wounds. It is the least serious of the 3 types of bleeding, since it is the easiest to control and results in the least blood loss. Blood ‘trickles’ out of capillaries for a short while before the bleeding stops.

Detailed explanation-3: -Capillary bleeding has the classic appearance of a road rash type of wound. Anyone who has fallen off a bike or while playing sports likely has some experience with this type of bleeding injury. Capillary bleeding distinctions are: The blood tends to ooze or bubble up on the surface of the wound.

Detailed explanation-4: -Arterial bleeding occurs when an artery is cut. This is the most serious type of external bleeding. Since the heart is pumping blood through the arteries, the blood will rhythmically spurt in large amounts from the wound. This type of injury is unlikely to clot due to the pumping pressure.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are 3 main types: arterial bleeding, venous bleeding, and capillary bleeding.
