Owwie foot
 

I stood on a blade and have sliced my foot both at the heel and at the front. The heel one is quite deep and hurts so so much and is still bleeding. I can sort out the wound cover it and everything but whenever I walk I get a pain all through my foot.Should I see the doctors in case of nerve damage or is it just me being mardy.

i would see the gp but wouldn't worry too much about nerve damage. the problem with the heel is that everytime you walk you put a lot of pressure through this area as is likely to split open. take care

Yeah I mean it's still hurting now as it's still bleeding quite fresh hasn't healed yet. Only reason was worried about nerves is because it goes all the way down my foot from above my heel to my toes. Cant get to GP til tomorrow is it a good idea to visit hospital

If it is worrying you then yes.

gor this is testing my memory of the anatomy of the foot, there are 3 nerves that run over the bottom of your foot, however there is a huge tendon called the plantar fascia which you would need to get through first before you got to the nerve. the heel area is very thick, and there is a huge bone there as well. are you getting any numbness or tingling???

if its deep its prob worth going a&e or minor injuries, plus it will put your mind at rest
dont panic tho sweetie xx

Cheers that's calmed my mind a bit I know I won't have broken a tendon. Finally bleeding is slowing still debating going to minor injuries, feeling bit woozy probably shock.

Ok flatmates told me off and im off to a and e

yeh you'd know about it if damaged tendon. glad you feeling bit calmer. have something to eat, drink (non alco) and get yourself to hosp, take your flat mate for company and let us know how you get on *cuddles*

Did you go? How is it now?

A&E was the right choice. =]

Back now took a long time. They saw me quick as I was still bleeding but then once it slowed I had to wait gave me some injection ( guessing this was a TB or similar). I have a couple of stitches on the heel one but not on the top. They said was definitely right to go to a and e as it may have got infected really easily. I have to keep an eye for infection but suppose to be reduced.

The injection may have been Tetanus.

Glad you got it looked at

I meant tetanus no idea where TB came from

glad you got it checked hun x
