A cut on my leg is leaking "water"?!

A cut on my leg is leaking "water"?

I cut my leg, at first it bled........ now it is leaking what appears to be water......... it soaked through the band-aid. Why would water be coming out of my leg?????

Just cut my leg about 20 minutes ago, so... it's not infected yet. .

The cut is about 1/4" or so, not too bad... but still leaking.

My leg is still leaking almost 24 hours later, is this something I should be worried about?

That is lymphatic fluid and antihystamines trying to heal the wound. Do not touch it or scratch, change the band aid and keep it clean with a good antiseptic wash and a drop of tincture of iodine. After 24 hours, if it looks o.k, remove the band aid and let the fresh air circulate, but keep it clean and do not fiddle with it. It needs to form a scap which assists to protect it while the natural healing takes place under it.
Depending where the cut is, more fluid may seep, do not touch it. However, if the cut is large go have some stitches placed or it will leave a bad scar to say the least, the skin needs to close or you will face septic problems.
(The iodine will help to keep it sterile and dry but if you need stitches do not use it the skin edges need to be fresh to seal well together).
