Capillary bleeding is characterized by what?

Capillary bleeding is characterized by oozing, which is typically the result of damage to the small blood vessels, or capillaries, in the skin or mucous membranes. This type of bleeding generally appears as a slow trickle or weeping of blood rather than a gush or spurting, which is associated with arterial bleeding. The oozing nature of capillary bleeding makes it less severe than other types of bleeding, allowing it to be managed effectively with basic first aid techniques such as applying direct pressure and a clean dressing. Unlike spurting or rapid flowing, which are indicative of serious arterial or venous injuries, capillary bleeding tends to be minor and usually resolves with time and care.
