I think tampons were first invented to plug bullet holes

I think tampons are older invention than bullets. I know tampons have been used for battlefield wounds, but I don't think that's their original intended use.

Tampons are not good for wound packing, thats a myth.

yeah, using tampons for bullet wounds is like putting a spout in the hole
