Stitches Needed!? Graphic pic
    #23496964 - 07/31/16 08:43 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

should I have gotten stitches?  I fell down on my bicycle and the sprocket caught my leg.  As you can see it left an open gash that was quite dirty at first.

Your gunna have a nice scar. I dont think you can get stitches now it looks like it already healed up a bunch. Your supposed to get stitches within hours of stuff happening.

Antibiotic maybe, but I don't see a NEED for stitches, however getting a couple might alleviate scarring.  I do see some infection starting though.


Chances are you'll heal fine.  If it starts to get more yellow and not closing up I would go though.

I've seen super glue work wonders on cuts.

I think he just needs the penicillin though.

I saw a beautiful girl at a festival fall off a cliff, smash head first into a rock, she was all sorts of fucked up.  Her campsite just superglued her face up.  You can't even tell now. 

I told her she was retarded and should go to the hospital.....but no girl is gonna leave her hula hoop, you know.

na. Doesn't look that deep. Watch for infection, but you should be fine.

Basically if you are alive and not gangrenous, the question "Should I have gone to the hospital?" is always answered "No"

"Should I NOW go to the hospital" is a question this forum isn't qualified to answer

Haha I looked at your pic and immediately thought every avid mtn. biker has a scar like that, or should. As for stitches it depends on how fast you want it to heal and how much of a scar you mind having, not to mention how much maintenance you're willing to do.
  It will heal faster with less scarring, less puss discharge, fewer bandage changes, fewer stained sheets/towels/pants etc. if you get stitches. If you don't mind washing it, applying 3x antibiotic/neosporin and covering with a new bandage everyday - the up-scale dirtbag way- then fuck stitches. Personally, I have scars like that on both shins (pedals etc. ) and calves and consider them virtual symbols of my bad-assery.

I've had much, much worse without getting stitches. Then again I have a phobia of needles and won't get them willingly no matter how badly I'm injured. If I pass out from blood loss or something and end up in the hospital with stitches when I finally come to, not much I can really do about it.

I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

You'll be fine. Personally I'd leave them will make cool scars. But you can super glue it which will tone it down a little.

Cool wound. You can tell people you got into a fight with a mountain lion and lived.

This should not have made me laugh.

I pretty much said the same exact thing to her.  Head traumas nothing to play around with.

You can't tell a hot asian girl with a hula hoop anything though.

Disinfect with povidone iodine, wash with sterile water, disinfect with hydrogenperoxide (low concentration), apply antiseptic of your choice and wrap with sterile cotton, don't wrap too tight. You should be fine.

Yeah at that point it's mainly about the scarring after
