Charlotte Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 OMG I think you'd faint if I told you what I was having done yesterday. Seriously though, it looks like a bit of fatty tissue. It might need a stitch or some glue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 It might need a stitch or some glue. I think amputation is the only option. I've had worse paper cuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might need a stitch or some glue. Me? I'm not sure what you mean.... I'm not squeemish. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't anything that would cause any damage to my finger if I left it. As I said, it's not sore I'm just not used to wierd things poking through cuts lol. Not really fussed about stitches etc, my hand is in a terrible state with scars already so it won't make any odds.

Charlotte Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 It was just the way you started off the thread - with the build up before the pics. Well - I guess if you're not bothered about scaring etc then you won't need a visit to the docs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A proper slice wouldn't have worried me, it was because it was a crush that I wasn't sure what could have popped out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedrosixfour Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Are they the before pics? Take it from me buddy you have nothing to worry about (septicaemia aside). Its just a bit of the dermis that got forced out on impact. I've peeled my thumb like a banana on a cracked headlight glass that gave way while I was trying to do a quick fix on it and there are white things to be found alright, tendons I assume.

Scott Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 You're like the mkivsupra.net version of 50 cent! Must just be my winning personality. If it was a BB/pellet gun and a butter knife then don't bother Well, it's not a pellet gun but I was accidentally shot in the ankle by a friend. At least he told me it was an accident The stabbings are real though, one was a crappy one in the leg in a nightclub (only about an inch wide and wasn't particularly deep). Wouldn't have been so bad but I didn't bother with going to get it seen to, dettol and some bandage sorted it lol. The other was a bit life/death centermass. Got a 2inch scar and a fair stint in the hospital with that one, and that was with stitches lol. Edit: Think the bullet was a .22? Wasn't a pellet but I think it was a similar size.

pedrosixfour Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Think the bullet was a .22? Wasn't a pellet but I think it was a similar size. Similar size, granted, but considerably heavier and travelling a damn sight faster. I can imagine that smarted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 Similar size, granted, but considerably heavier and travelling a damn sight faster. I can imagine that smarted. Hurt like hell. It was technically called a "graze" but I felt like slapping the nurse when he said that to me. I was walking in front of him, he was swaying his arm (normal walk) not realising the gun in his hand was loaded. Went off and the bullet shot down the inside of my ankle, hit the inside lump of the ankle bone and deflected through my shoe. Only damage that was done was a chipped ankle bone and a cut on my ankle so could have been worse but it seriously hurt. Only thing more painful was when I tore the ligaments in my ankle.

Oh, this one is permanent, as is the one on the side where they left the wound open for the infection to come out. I was 24 hours from an amputation about 5 years ago..!! H.

Not sure, it was really really sore but I don't think it was the sort of pain that people get when they dislocate their shoulder through injury. If you can imagine being able to pull the shoulder from the socket and place it outside the socket, no shock force or anything like that. Might have been a nerve or 2 in there, or muscle, but it wasn't proper trauma so I was ok...... until I ran at the wall. Went downhill from there lol.
