Self Aid 02/03/26(Tue)18:06:30 No.64834399 Do you think you have the pain tolerance to pack your own junctional GSW?
I am not confident, personally. I don't think I could successfully use anything out of my IFAK on myself that wasn't either a tourniquet or something so minor an ETB would do the job.

TQs don't hurt that bad dude. Very tolerable. But if you've ever been shot in the pelvis and successfully packed the cavity I'd love to hear about it.

My pain tolerance is pretty high but fine motor skills are the first to check out. I'll keep pressure on the wound but it's better to have someone else pack it.

Yeah that's my take. I think I'd grit my teeth and start out alright but leave the job half-done if not completely ineffective.

I've experienced that level of pain before and remained functional, but there's a psychological aversion to damaging my own body that I can't overcome. Not sure if I could pack my own wound, but I know for a fact that I couldn't suture my own wound even though I'd have no problem watching someone else do it to me. I'm not even 100% that I could self administer an epipen.
