Yes or minor injuries, it looks deep.

Toomuch2young · 25/05/2016 16:19

As in YANBU. Do take him!

Creampastry · 25/05/2016 16:20

Yabu for asking. Of course you need to go.

SweetieDrops · 25/05/2016 16:20

I'd try to go to a minor injuries unit if you have one nearby. Looks quite a nasty cut, is he up to date with tetanus vaccines?

Swissgemma · 25/05/2016 16:21

Yes! There are crap loads of tendons and stuff in fingers what may have been damaged!

SemiNormal · 25/05/2016 16:21

Definitely get to A&E with that, it looks fairly deep and wide.

Awwwwwwwweee. Thanks for the warning!

Yes go! Does your doctor's do minor surgery? Poor guy. It looks bloody painful.

BlueberryJuice · 25/05/2016 16:23

Yanbu, the cut looks quite deep & if not sorted properly would make it too easy to get infected, go to a&e or a minor injuries if you have one of those local, hope he's ok Smile

themorus · 25/05/2016 16:25

Definitely go a&e

MummySparkle · 25/05/2016 16:25

Yep, A&E for that. How old is he? I'd probably go to A&E as minor injuries won't be able to assess any damage to tendons / nerves etc. If they think there might be damage they'll send you to a&e anyway. Hope he feels better soon

Daphesebit · 25/05/2016 16:34

i would

Take him. He needs his tendons etc assessing properly.
