Infection - bleeding

[lost_star_6]

Ok so I cut myself about 3 hours ago pretty deep and it is still bleeding.. like a lot. I have tried to put pressure on it and stuff but i can't make it stop. If you can help please let me know what i can do. I am starting to just get real sleepy and kind of dizzy...

I hope its stopped! Keep your arm elevated in the upright position. You should really think about going to hospital for steri strips by the sound of it or your local GP. If its stopped (sorry Im not sure what time you posted), then maybe consider getting it checked out at a health centre. Keep it clean with antispectic cream and keep it covered.

If a wound still bleeds after 15 minutes of direct pressure, then you need to seek medical attention. I hope you have been seen by someone.

Take care
