My finger was cut by scissors!?!
Question: My finger was cut by scissors!!?
My "Pointer finger" first layer skin was cut I think!.!.(There was alot of blood) And my teacher put 3 bandages, and I was wondering what to do now!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Gently remove the bandages!. Don't pull!. If they have stuck to the wound then soak the finger in warm salty water to let them come off easily & also clean the wound too!. After soaking let the finger dry, dab with tea tree oil cover with bandaid/bandage & do this every day until better!. If the cut keeps bleeding badly go to the doctor/hospital coz u might need stitches!. U can wear health gloves to help improve healing & protect the wound also!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
your treatment depends on the depth of you cut, what i can suggest is that once you remove the bandages, make sure you got some gauze with you!. If the bleeding starts control it with some gauze and pressure (with your other hand or bandage) - if within 5 mins it does not stop completely, you probably need stitches!. Now, if the bleeding is controlled put some antiseptic cream and seal it (only indicated for the cream)!. if an infection happens, monitor it and with progress go to ER to be cleaned and closed!.!.!. hopefully won't be necessary ;-)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
