Ouch - WARNING: Not for the squeamish

scarletpeaches · Jun 14, 2007

I've just put a f***ing razor blade through my hand!!!

I was shaving my legs, dropped the razor and lost my balance and fell right on it - took a chunk out of the palm of my hand. Right hand okay thank god, as that's my writing hand. Typing one-handed while gripping a blood-soaked tea-towel in my left.

Don't lie. Chicks in the UK do not shave.

Sheryl Nantus · Jun 14, 2007

good Lord..

get thee hence to the doctor if you can't stop the bleeding!!!

chicks indeed...

LloydBrown · Jun 14, 2007

Yeah, that's the way to think. Notify your AW buddies BEFORE getting first aid. I love this place.

She's got national health. Can't get an appointment for another 6 months.

I trust SP to implement satisfactory first aid, but I do find it compelling evidence that those imperialist islanders do not often handle razors.

(How long before she calls me a cow?)

Periodic bleedings are still a good way to purge the ill humours from your system. Don't bandage it for at least five or six hours.

Ouch. I took a substantial chunk out of my ankle some years ago when I got in a hurry trying to shave my legs. Not good.

See, guys? The things we do to look good for y'all?

Although that incident did result in an Epilady for Christmas...

How is it, BTW? Hope it at least stopped bleeding.

Haggis · Jun 14, 2007

Excuse me. Someone here call for the barber? I've brought my leeches.

Stew21 · Jun 14, 2007

don't you know, an open wound is a playground for bacteria? At least take the dripping tea towel off, clean your cut with Windex (or Peroxide or alcohol will do) and put some clean sterile gauze on it.

trish, thinks scarlet just told this story so everyone would have to imagine her in the shower.

I said they didn't shave, Rob. British women still menstruate. At least I think they do...

Else I can't explain all the nasty remarks I get from those biatches across the way.

Can we have one thread that doesn't turn into a discussion about Paris Hilton, please?

You dumbass...

Gads, go to the doctor! You know there are all kinds of ligaments (or some such thing) right near the surface on your hand. Go to the doctor!

She does when we're planning on getting together, only because the hair can become a bit of a fire hazard.

Perks · Jun 14, 2007

Yikes! She's gone.

Nichola, I do hope you're okay.

scarletpeaches · Jun 14, 2007

Just back from doc, 2 stitches and a dressing. At least it wasn't my writing hand.

Stew21 · Jun 14, 2007

Poor Peach!
2 stitches will get pretty uncomfortable in your palm though, I'd think.
take care!

Been advised to wiggle fingers a lot to stop skin growing back taut, so will do interesting hand signals at thethinker42 for medical reasons of course.

Don't bloody dare. I need sympathy, not mockery.

Oh. I said 'bloody'. Had enough of that this afternoon.
