On the good side of it all, It stopped bleeding pretty quickly, with pressure, and it's not throbbing anymore.
I'm always really careful about my hands, too. Accidents will happen... |

Yes it spread. Yes it looked nasty. I put pressure on it, then wrapped it. It's staying closed. It'll be fine, unless I accidentally pop it back open--done THAT before (the thought of it makes me shiver). I've only gotten stitches once, for a head wound. Otherwise, I'm good with butterflies and bandages.  Within reason, of course.
Sorry, no pics. |
