What is the most important first aid measure in facial injury management?

Control of bleeding
Application of ice
Establish and maintain an airway
Immediate pain relief

The correct answer is: Establish and maintain an airway

Establishing and maintaining an airway is the most important first aid measure in facial injury management because it ensures that the person can breathe properly and prevents any further complications. While controlling bleeding and providing immediate pain relief are also important, they are not considered the most important measure in this scenario. Applying ice is not a first aid measure for facial injuries as it can potentially worsen swelling and pain. It is important to prioritize establishing and maintaining an airway before addressing any other injuries or symptoms.
