Just got cut, should i get stitches?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I think it's a great idea to come on a fish fourm to ask for mediacal advice:grinno:

I think he should raise the temperature and add salt. Maybe a little Melafix and it should heal :grinno:
 
dang jeff, that's pretty nasty

i've always found people using super glue to be a dumb idea, but i guess it works since that seems to be the popular advise

there's actually stuff they made for cuts like that, not sure where you'd find it but i've seen it used in boxing. it works like super glue but it's not actual super glue, it's made for closing gashes like that
 
Superglue for sure. I've got it in every one of my first aid kits. It burns like a mother ****er if you get it inside a cut, but it only takes one time for you to learn to be careful with it. However, it's an essential item to close up cuts.
 
DERMABOND!!!
 
I tried to go get stitches today at a local hospital this morning but was rejected... They said it had to be no longer than 8 hours after the cut to do stitches. So that was pretty *** of them.. Yea, that was pretty dumb of me to wait for the next day to go try to get it stitch, should of gone yesterday... And the superglue advise, i didn't try it which i should of.. lol
 
yea it looks like you need stitches
