Will steri strips be ok for this cut on the palm of my hand ? Accidentally cut my hand with a knife.

It will depend on how deep and wide the wound is I would have thought.

Your picture hadn’t posted but if will depend on depth and location of the cut. I had a pretty small cut on my thumb but it ended up needing a tendon repaired and 5 stitched just because of the location, if in doubt phone NHS24

That needs more than steri strips. Minor injuries or A and E

Definitely A &E.

That needs stitching
