When do you need stitches-human that is

Finally went to get it checked after 5 hours of bleeding/oozing. One stitch; x-ray cause she thought it was so deep it might have nicked the bone (but nope); antibiotics and, a very sore finger. All's well!

You won't be sorry! So glad you did that rather than put up with all you could have to deal with in that bend-y area trying over and over to heal. It still won't be any party with a wound there but you will get well soooo much faster. You saved yourself a lot of grief.

Thank you, Jeanie, and thank you for your help, too.
