HOWEVER, 3-5-10-a states that a injured player must only be replace for a down if the ready for play is delayed or the clock is stopped for the player. If the clock has not been stopped for the bleeding player, then the only restriction for return would be that the bleeding and/or blood on the uniform has been fixed.
Case plays for 3-5-10 state the clock stopping is the key.

Actually, if you look at case play 3.5.10.B and C it does not matter if the clock is stopped as much as if the "official is involved" in the situation in any way. Good point though if the player notices and not an official at all how it is possible for him not to miss a play.
