It will stop bleeding on it's own, don't worry about it. If it doesn't stop bleeding, then well, you have a clotting problem and it's a good thing you found out from just a small cut.

You are just going to have to keep applying pressure on it for a while and it will stop , I know its annoying but in time you will prevail.

After 10-15 of of applying ice, it kept bleeding. The stepic pencil only worked when I placed the pencil on the wound and applied pressure with a towel and held it for about 2 minutes.
