I was washing dishes and a glass broke and cut the top of my thumb on the lower knuckle. (furtherest from the nail) but its more to the right. The bleeding stopped almost immediately. But now I m having shooting pains go through my Hand and arm. I have throbbing pains also. What can I do if any. Thanks,Deedra mayer
