Hi guys, I've had heart flutters alot today for whatever reason so it's been a bit rough.
Prehaps that's why I'm now overly worrying.
I cut my finger yesterday on a metal can and don't have a plaster to cover it. It's only been a day and it seems to be scabbing slightly and everything but my knuckle around the cut is really red, especially when I bend my knuckle, and I can't stop thinking that it might be infected and if I should go and see if it needs antibiotics or not.
I don't really want to go to the walk in centre as it takes hours so I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice. It it normal for wounds to be fairly red and tingly a few days after they happend. Especially if it's on my knuckle?
Is it ok if I just wait and see what happenes for the next few days or is that dangerous if it is infected?
Ah, I know I'm being silly but today was rough. Sometimes it gets very tiring.
Thanks.
