help!
 

i ws cleanin my "tool" and it slipped and ive quite badly cut my finger.
its ryt on a finger joint nd it wnt stop bleeding
help!

pm me or comment, bt plz quickly coz my mum will b bac in an hour and she wnt b impressd if im bleedin ova her house!

need lots of pressure on it, and hold it there longer than you think you need too cos peaking will prob break and clot and start it again.
also try and keep the finger straight for the moment cos bending will split the clot.
have you got any steristrips to try and hold the thing together??

ok, thanks.
erm...no steristrips...wot about if i cut micropore tape into smaller strips???
kept pressure on it for...well, since i posted the original
thanks again!

is it still bleeding hunny?

yeah, i've now put micropore over it but its coming through the uncovered bit...it's kinda worrying me now :S

hunny you should go get it checked to be on the safe side.

i can't
there's no way i can leave the house
and mum'll b ba soon
it's clotted now, so its stoppd bleedin kinda.

good is stop bleedig fully now. If not when yer mum comes in just say that you was making lunch and accidently cut yer finger on the knife or something like that

Ok, I told mum that.
But I flexed my hand and all the micropore came off, and now it's bleeding even heavier than before!
I got away before Mum could see it, but it's been 20 minutes and it's getting steadily worse!

Hold your hand above your head with pressure on the wound. Keep it there for 10-15 minutes. If after that it is still bleeding you will need to get help for it unfortuntley.

ok, it's definitely ok now.
thanks everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good to hear that take care

hey hows your finger??

hey, its really sore still, but it looks kinda like a papercut so no one's asked me about it
:)

thats good that noone will think anything of it. obviously its a bit deeper than a paper cut so will take a bit time to feel unsore but keep a check on it so it doesnt get infected
