Did you know that superglue can be used on a cut? Spread a thin layer over the cut, and it will help hold the edges together, which can promote healing.
A tea bag can also be useful. Tannins in black tea help stop bleeding in the mouth and gums. So if your lips are so chapped they're bleeding, or you've bit your tongue hard enough to draw blood, try setting a damp tea bag on the spot.
These tips from ER physicians Melissa Barton and Lee Benjamin
