I'm suffering from a serious tragedy

Dopameme · October 07, 2014, 12:16:24 AM

Earlier today I received a package in the mail. I was a little excited when I was trying to open it, carelessly using a pair of scissors to try and cut the tape and ultimately slicing my thumb open pretty badly. I've wrapped some gauze on it to stop the bleeding, but it's getting more and more painful to move the thumb.

Spoiler

^ That's pretty much all I have to deal with it, not sure what I should do at this point. The one thing I'm worrying about the most is how I'm going to fap with my left hand

UPDATE

Spoiler

^ I just took off my ghetto-rigged gauze and snapped this picture. The blood near the top of the cut isn't dry, when I took off the gauze I could feel a little bit of the scab that was forming rip off and it started to bleed again. I'm pretty sure I'll be fine.

If you have badly injured yourself then you should probably go to the ER.

Post a picture of the wound. You might need stitches.

I'm afraid if I take off the gauze it'll start bleeding again, might as well try to tough it out and see what it's like tomorrow morning.

Are you scared of blood? You aren't going to bleed to death.

Not necessarily, it's just that I couldn't stop the cut from spewing out blood without the gauze, so I don't want to irritate it or something and cause the wound to not heal properly

Cut your hand off and put it in your butt

Did you disinfect the cut?

My butt has nothing to do with this >.>

CIS · October 07, 2014, 12:31:25 AM

But seriously if you don't want to go to the ER then put some alcohol on it. That will disinfect it.

If you haven't noticed, I try not to take things too seriously. To be honest the cut is kind of deep but I don't think going to the hospital or something drastic like that is necessary. Things would have been so much worse if I panicked and didn't act accordingly. Plus, I pretty much don't have health insurance, so that would be an expense that I really don't want to deal with right now.

I'm sure I'll be fine. If there's no visible improvement when I look at it tomorrow, I'll consider going to a doctor or something.

Ouch.
I nearly cut one of my fingers off recently.

Spider landed on my hand while I had a stanley blade in the other hand.
*Cue panicked flailing and smacking my hand with the blade hand*

Luckily it was rusty and blunt. :/

Magos Domina · October 07, 2014, 04:03:57 AM

Doesn't seem that bad. But I know how sore those little cuts can be.
Especially in places like that where the skin flexes.

I'm just glad that I cut myself in a place where it's pretty much just loose skin. The darker part is where the scissor blade stopped, so it went at least 1/4 of an inch deep and left a nice flap of skin to deal with.
