Cut my thumb?!


Question: Cut my thumb!?
I was opening a Smart Ones sandwich with a knife and when it opened the sandwich it also opened my finger a little!I have seen my mom get cuts alot worse than this and I know I dont need stiches or anything(the cut itsnt even a inch long)!. but this is what I did,I put my hand under water,than I put a napkin on it and applied pressure so the bleeding would stop(didnt bleed to much),then I put A&D ointment on it and then a bandaid!.I was just wondering if I needed to do anything else!?And again,I dont need stitches or anything cause Ive seen worse cuts without stitches!I was just wondering if there is anything else I needed to do or if anything I did was bad for the cut! Please let me know!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
