its probably better for 3 seconds of pain aslong as you make sure that its going to not cause an infection!.lol but yeah just use savlon, they are a pretty respected brand and usually they dont hurt at all!. Just try to keep the cut clean and disinfected until you can get a proper dressing on it!.

Funnily enough saliva is a natural antiseptic, so if you don't feel odd sucking your thumb, give it a go!. However if the bleeding has stopped and the blood congealed, then don't reopen the wound with antiseptic (of any kind) as the body has sealed the wound itself, thus reducing the chance of infection!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
A good natural source for cuts burns and grazes is an aloe vera plant, works quickly at cleaning and closing the cut and no chemicals!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Try either Savlon or warm salt water, both will clean it and hopefully help reduce the chances of infection!. Good luck xWww@Answer-Health@Com
