Guest guest Posted November 10, 2003 Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 Sunday one week ago I was slicing potatoes for dinner and my mind was totaly somewhere else - so slash bang I almost sliced of my left forefinger too (at least 1/3 of the way). Blood was flowing and I could't scream to loud, didn't want to freighten the kids... I tried to stem the blood enough to tape the wound together (used to work in an operation ward in my younger days LOL), but started to faint and had to lie down on the floor with my feet up on the toilet seat. Well to cut it short, my DH managed to bandage it and the next day I redid it myselt a little bit more properly. The cut itself have now almost healed, but I must have managed to damage a nerv with that cut, cause from the knuckle and over the next joint, half the finger is totaly numb. I know it sounds silly, but I don't think this is something to run to the doctor with (the only times I go and see a doc is when I'm in dire need), I much more would like to find something natural healsing restoring kind of thing instead. So come on - give me some healthy :-D advice here on what to cook up to speed the healing fo the nerv. Hmm yeahh, heal the cut too, cause it don't look to good :-( not the best of my taping experience me thinks.

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2003 Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 My husband does that on a monthly basis, LOL! Lavender hydrosol always heals it quickly for him. Don't know about the nerve damage, though. The last one for my husband was broken glass, and I think he still has a piece in there, b/c waaaayyyy too much scar tissue has developed. Any ideas about that?
