Dear doctors, I had cut the side(where two fingers lay on each other) of my fingers while trying to split burgers. I cut was too deep and I could see the bones and tiny strings in my finger. Initially it didn t bleed much, then I felt dizzy I couldn t see well, inside my mouth went numb and cold and i felt so weak ( I wasn t panicking by any mean). Then I went to emergency, after waiting for two hours while bleeding so heavily the doctor decided that my finger doesn t need stitching. Without even cleaning my wound and only with simple bandage dressing they asked me to go home and take care of it. Now In the morning I feel severe pain not in the wound but in the bone of my ring finger. I feel very weak and cold, something like fever coupled with dizziness and lack of appetite. Would it be possible to advise me on this matter or if you think I need to see another doctor based on the mentioned symptoms. Many thanks
Hi Hope this message finds you in good health. I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern. U seem to have injured your soft tissues as well as bones that might be going into infection. Ideally u should get a X-ray done and should get the wound stitched. Consult a good surgeon immediately. Nothing to worry about. I hope your question has been answered. If you have any follow-up queries, feel free to consult me anytime. Thanks, Take care, God bless.
