: One idea would be to get one of those blood clot sticks that you can buy in the shaving area at you local store (target, kmart,etc). Just put it on the area and it should stop the bleeding. Just an idea.

The trauma in question is internal and is potentially extremely serious. This needs professional surgical intervention as a matter of considerable urgency. Never try to treat this kind of thing yourself. This tortoise needs a qualified vet *now*. Every hour that passes places it in greater danger.
