if you had butterfly stitches at home you could use them. i'm guessing you don't have any.
what did 111 say?
also, are you still bleeding? is it healing at all? |

"What about if you can't see somebody then would anyone have any recommendations on what to do?"
I would have said yes you need stitches or surgical glue.... the white layer you see is called the epidermis. That's quiet a deep cut if you can see that layer, plus more chance of complicated infections setting in. However seeing this is 7 hour old thread. There's nothing more to be done other than clean it, dress it and maybe a course if antibiotics! As the skin ends die off after 1 HR so the would won't nit back together correctly

I know you see a lot of nurses uniforms on here.... Not all ladies who wear nurses uniforms on here are nurses though.. best seeking out professional help.  |

The only reason you would avoid A&E would be a stabbing you didn't want reporting. Get to A&E...huge risk of infection. |

"get to A E if still bleeding
If it's still bleeding after 7 hours ?  
The man will be needing a transfusion !
I do hope he's ok, seeing as we haven't had an update  "
Blood pressure is more a concern too! |

If it's not stopping you from typing on here I would imagine its probably not as dramatic as implied ...
But hey...... I'm not a real doctor...
Yours sincerely

"It's been 11 hrs now...... someone should check on him...
I actually hope he doesn't go UNLOS....
is our 'advice' admissible at an inquest?
"
Surely if he's fully drained-out that's not likely to happen ...  |

"If electrical tape don't fix it,it's time to call somebody. "
What a ridiculaous suggestion!
everybody knows sparky tape is only good for fingers and a leg will heal perfectly well wrapped in gaffer tape  |

"I have a cut on my leg and its quite wide and I can see like white "meat" is this bad?
You see 'white' meat?
Are you a chicken? "
The white 'meat' is sub cutaneous fat, get yourself to A+E. |

I'm hoping the OP isn't still sat around waiting for further advice, although you never can tell  |

Seriously? Think you may need medical help! "
Been there, done that (with a chain saw), decided to ignore it, got infected, took ages to heal, left a big scar....lovely. |

"Cautery.
Dig out that cast iron poker.
Light a fire.
Grit teeth.
Nah, superglue is an effective, stop-gap treatment for deep wounds. "
Stapler - everyone has a stapler! Pour whisky on it first though....to sterilise  |

There you go, it's fat, so while you have chance, scoop it out with a teaspoon and vacuum cleaner. Low-cost liposuction. Always look for the positive in a situation. The skin will also be looser, so easier to staple/glue/gaffer tape up.
Win-win |

"Seek medical advice from Medical professionals (go to A&E)"
Don't listen to him. Don't you know that people have had enough of experts?!?!
Just staple it up and stop complaining!
(don't really, go see a Dr) |

"You consult a medical professional,not random strangers on the internet.
Jesus wept..."
We're quicker, no waiting time for appointments, offer great sexual injuries recovery expertise as well as some smart arse feedback into the bargain. You can't get all that in a 2-3 mins NHS visit. |

But try not to staple to the bone. It's a bitch to pull them out. |

I get cut almost everyday, my rule is I can't stop it bleeding within 30minutes and it's wider than an inch it's time for a stitch unless masking tape will hold it together |

"Ask people on forums on sex sites, It's definitely the most sensible thing to do."
Exactly!
Medical issues? Sex sites.
Legal issues? Sex sites.
Sex issues? Sex sites (given the level of advice some give this ranks woth the others!).
How to fix your computer? Sex sites.
Any question that Google could find the answer to in 10s? Sex sites.

"Superglue, stings but works.
Do not use superglue, ordinary superglue cures with heat and can burn the skin preventing healing medical superglue is different."
Actually they're the same. They use moisture to cure (which bison why it doesn't work in plastics and metals). It was developed for battlefield use during the Vietnam war. I've been using it for years on myself and others without issues. |

No it wasn't.
The .44 magnum bullet was developed for hunting bears. |

The ones that don;t hurt are the worst.
I was busy high-fiving people and only noticed something was wrong when they backed off and said look at your hand.
Wish I hadn't  |

He didn't say where the cut was...
Even if it was a stabbing we (the staff on A&E) can't tell the police unless the patient tells us they got stabbed and even then we usually phone them at the patients request!
The number of daft excuses for injuries we get....Aww you really fell on that big dildo whilst mopping the floor naked? Oh and it was a burglar that put it up there.. |
