Yes, as unlikely as it sounds, it is sometimes used to close a wound quickly.

Despite this, super glue should NOT be used to close a wound in a first aid setting. Proper evaluation and treatment by a medical practitioner is needed. There is some clinical and scientific evidence that shows super glue may be a carcinogen and increase the risk of some cancers.

Answer:yes it was used in wars in history to stop soldiers bleeding and heel there wounds quicker but i wouldn't try it just because the glue may have changed and so could have dangerous chemicals in now a days. :)

Yes. It might sting for a bit until it dries, but it is basically the same thing as surgical glue.

As long as the glue is dry before you put them back in. A few months ago, I had bitten my tongue and used super glue to hold the piece in place so it could reattach. No taste, sting or problem.
