I just cut my ring finger?!
Question: I just cut my ring finger?
Answers:
It sounds like you should be fine. You might want to wash the cut, disinfect it with something like hydrogen peroxide, and put neosporin or polysporin on it. Just clean it on a regular basis and change the bandage. Eventually you might want to take the bandage off and expose it to air so it can heal better.
if the cut is big enough, say, an inch or so...put two thin pieces of some sort of medical tape across the cut with a little bit of tension so as to hold the two sides of the cut together, leave a small gap between the two edges of the tape though to allow the little bit of interstitial fluid to seep out. Use some antiseptic like neosporin or something, just follow the directions on the tube
interstitial fluid = clear fluid in the skin and other membranes that resides between and around the cells.
its completely normal for a bit of this (maybe a drop or two) to drain off from a fresh cut
