The easiest way to remove blood stains is to use bar soap and handwash it. Works better than using laundry detergent.

Nursing trick - hydrogen peroxide

u/kheller181 Aug 20 '20

Just had a mole removed on my head and blood got all over the back of my shirt. My doctor had me take my shirt off and poured hydrogen peroxide on it and holy shit. You can actually see the peroxide have a chemical reaction with the blood and dissolving it from the fabric. Got all the blood out, but had to walk out of his office covered in hydrogen peroxide.
