Do I need to go to the emergency room ?!


Question: Do I need to go to the emergency room !?
So I was washing my hands in the bathroom and when I stepped out, I stepped on a small (but quite sharp!) piece of glass !. I screamed and basically fell back on the bed where I ripped the piece of glass out !. It hurt very badly!. My dad got the cut all bandaged up but it still hurts very terribly when I step and I'm scared there's more glass in there!. I looked but I couldn't see anything, but my dad thought he did!. Should I go to the emergency room !?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I would definately see a doctor about it!. If your not bleeding to excessively I would just wait till tomorrow morning and go see your primary care doctor!. The emergency room takes forever!.!.!.probably 3-4 hours!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

YES u do need to go to the ER cuz some glass might still be in there!. they do an ex-ray to see if theres still glass in there!. my hand went through the front door glass and i went to the er and had to get stitches so u should really get it checked out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

depends!.!. glass will come up to the surface after a while!. If you have insurance I'd say go, but if you don't like me then I'd wait it out to see what happens!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you think something is still in there, yes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
