sliced into it with sharp knifing cutting onions while being distracted by child having a tantrum.
it is quite deep, not entirely sure a stitch would not be beneficial, will see how it goes. think the nail stopped it being too deep as it hit something, suspect i was the nail not bone. i have looked, but not too keenly as i appears i am suddenly quite squeamish!
not had a deep cut like this, since i was about 12 when i should have had stitches but didn't. it was deeper then than now. so how should i clean it? what with, and i think it is going to need a bit more than a plaster so what should i use?
i am asking as i cant seem to make sense with google and dh is on his way home so i can get him to swing by pharmacy if needs be
