Is it normal that my cut won't stop bleeding?

16 Comments

Hi. So I cut myself on the side of my hand. It wasn't that deep, though. After a while I asked my teacher for a band-aid saying it was a paper cut but she didn't believe me. I got the band-aid though. Now I'm at home and took off the band-aid. It wasn't bleeding. But now a few minutes ago it started bleeding again and won't stop. Please help!! I really don't want to tell my parents :(

    IIN that my gun shot wound is still hurting and bleeding

    I got shot about half an hour ago and it's still bleeding and really hurts, when Mom see's all the blood on the couch and rug she's going to be super cross.

    What should I do?

    Put some honey on it. Honey helps wounds to heal and it has anti-bacterial proprieties.

    I'd just say keep applying pressure to it through a cloth (if it's a lot of blood) or another band-aid while you go tell your parents...

    I'm not going to jump to conclusions and say that it's a huge deal or that it's no big deal at all considering we don't have all the details, but just tell your parents. They'll help out and possibly will take you to the doctors if it's serious enough. Good luck.

    Sounds like haemophilia. See a doctor.

    You don't want to tell your parents that you got a papercut? Are you 5 or a troll? I'm gonna go with the latter...

    Go see a doctor
    bleeding that wont stop is a big sign that you need medical care.

    So you come to IIN?

    You think this is the most appropriate place to seek medical help or advice?

        Buy one. In the meantime put pressure on it.
