So, I was separating some burgers and ended up stabbing myself in the hand and finger. hurt pretty bad and once I got the bleeding slowed down I gave my parents a call (former paramedics) (on a side note, my dad was actually asked to teach classes) anyway, call them and ask, how deep is a cut before I get stitches... and my dad goes, well, were you able to get the bleeding stopped or slowed down. Told him that I was and then he asked me how much muscle did I get into, I say well it's deep but not a long way in there, it was gushing but it stopped. Then my dad goes... okay then... your good just clean it out really good so you don't get an infection... good night *click* My dad though knowing me knows that I feel that stitches are worthless and just end up leaving a scar. but damn it hurt. Feels better now, but I'll post some pics tomorrow. Now I have to go study for engine dis assembly test tomorrow.
Dang dude.. hope it heals up good for ya.. you need your hands for workin on cars so hopefully u still got full movement tru?
lol, i was doing an install in a friends civic about a month ago and i put my hand into the stereo pocket to get to the wiring and got a really deep cut on the top of my hand, i should have gotten stitches for it but i'm hard headed and since it didn't hurt much i didn't bother, now i got a nasty scar on the top of my hand. oh well... hope you finger heals well....
it is less about the finger as it is the palm. Made it hard to grip stuff but I still got through it. Can't find a butterfly bandage in the state of California it seems like. I have a dr. appointment for other stuff on Thursday so I'll have him take a look at it then as well, to make sure that it isn't infected. Just keeping it clean is hard enough. Like you I am hard headed, I've been sick for almost a solid month before I decided to go to the dr. because it wasn't going away on it's own. one day I think this attitude may kill be but at least I'll go out making everyone believe I was tough... or an idiot mostly the later camp I think
When I was doin all the wiring through the stereo pocket in my civic I got so many cuts and stuff but I was so preocupied with getting the wires through I didn't notice all the blood getting everywhere lol
ty if you cant find a butterfly bandage then look for a second skin type of bandage. it should overlap the cut by 1/2 inch or so to keep it clean. http://www.jansenmedical.net/2nd-skin-dressing-kit.html im sure it can be found at a drugstore or walmart.
clean the cut...then hold the slit together and use super glue to hold the wound together...it works.
knew about it. didn't have any super glue handy, accidentally ripped the one on my finger open again damn school! , I think it might not be a bad idea to superglue it and then possibly get it stitched up at my dr on thursday. Mostly because it has become a pain in the ass
finger cots work too. after the glue dries. if you dont know what they are. they are like little rubbers for your finger.:huh:^_^
