sliced my finger pretty good tonight cleaning a pocket knife. got it to stop bleeding with pressure, but soon as i let go it started flowing again. managed to get a bandaid on it, but i could tell that it wasn’t coagulating because of its location. so i cobbled together a splint to keep me from bending the area with the cut, but knew i was gonna need it properly cleaned and dressed and a tetanus shot.*
called an urgent care run by our city’s biggest medical provider and they told me they had no bookings left (um, what? that’s not urgent care) and to go to the ER cause i was gonna need x-rays and deliverance from evil or some shit.
managed to get a ride over to one of the independent urgent care places (which is likea miracle they were open) and they took the time to help me. this is what the consumerization of healthcare gets you. doctors can’t find nothing wrong with you if you just don’t go… 😅
EDIT: thank god it weren’t one of my thumbs!
