Answers:
i wouldnt explain that story, but i personaly would goto er, i think its against tha imperative fo them to call tha police
It's wrong for hospitals to call the police to report patients for illegal endeavours (unless it's child abuse). Otherwise, it would discourage people from seeking medical treatment. Put gauze or a towel over the wound, and wrap it up with an ACE lint, or something that applies pressure. Get to the nearest Emergency Room as soon as you can! Infection can easily set in and spread to the blood stream for reflective wounds like that.
go 2 the hospital, y u startled of the cops?
if you're going to act macho, it's broken. why should you be scared of the cops? they just want to receive sure you weren't attacked in any way. lately tell them it was an twist of fate and get some proffesional medical assistance. vodka doesnt help. it purely makes it painful.
I know this isn't the answer you want but you inevitability to go to the hospital and get someone to stitch it up for you. it isn't undisruptive to stitch it up yourself.
Well I find it suspicious that you are afraid of seeing the po po ... especially since you claim this be a kitchen accident.

You need to walk to an ER like it or not. I won't get into the gross details of what WILL transpire to you if you don't get the proper treatment.

Suck it up and go. Source(s): paramedic
how ever this happened you inevitability urgent medical attention. - forget the fuzz!

if you have hit a muscle you could reck ya shoulder, how do you know what you hit and what you didnt - blade injuries are very misleading.

the smallest of blades will shoot you - not to mention the infections you can get - at the very tiniest you need antibiotics to keep within free from infections!

and how do you think you can stiches it with one appendage!!

bite the bullet and just go to the hospital you dont enjoy to say how you did it!
Needle and thread?

Try drinking the vodka too, it will help the pain.

And cut stale the blood circulation to the arm that should slow the bleeding. Source(s): That's happen to me...except someone cut me...
You call for to go to the hospital.
Seriously.
Hospitals don't call the cops anyway, otherwise this would put race off getting help contained by an emergency.
And if this was just an happenstance, then why are you worried about the cops?
You seriously need to turn to the doctor you could get an infection, whether you like it or not.
Clean the wound with alcohol (isopropol from the drug store).

Hold it together as best you can.

If you hold nothing else, dental floss will work as stitches.

Thread the needle & start stitching.
Umm..how about getting yourself to the hospital in the past you bleed to death?
Apply pressure while you thread it shut.

Or better however, go to the hospital. Have someone else drive though.
Do you have any Super Glue in the house? Hospitals use super paste to close the skin of minor injuries. Just don't glue your fingers to your arm.

By the way. That story of falling contained by the kitchen is lame. If you got to the hospital, it is best to say zilch or have a better story. :-)
OMG!… I BET THAT IT REALLY HURTS
BUT YOU REALLY NEED TO
GO TO THE HOSPITAL B4
YOU BLEED TO DEATH.
DO NOT DO IT YOUR SELF
BECAUSE YOU COULD END UP DOING
SOMETHING VERY WRONG AND IT WILL HURT
LIKE HE11!!…
I REALLY HOPE YOUR OK
AND YOU GET IT LOOKED
AT BY A REAL DOCTOR!!… Source(s): ME
