Glass in arm

[Its a Plant]

well it'll usually start to become pretty sensitive around the injured area, and yah some slight swelling and/or redness. If an area around the wound is red, I would seriously go to the ER NOW. No need to risk it.

And hopefully one of your parents would accompany you to the hospital. No reason they wouldn't.

I bailed and my arm got all cut up, I thought it was just a normal cut so I kept biking for another hour or so. I get home have a shower wash my cuts and stuff and low and behold there a chunk of glass in my arm. I tried getting it out with tweasers but the end broke off so now theres like a centemetre and a half long piece of glass in my arm I cant get out. I dont know Rating: 5

it was like 7:30 when I came home she was out of bed but w/e I dont want to get into it right now cause I'll end up typing out like 1000nd words lol. So its not really hurting at all and I was just wondering what you guys think would happen if I just left it in there??? would it like dissolve or something cause I had a rock in my knee when I was like 8 and that like dissolved or something.

at least be smart enough to wrap it in gauze and apply a bit of disinfectant to it if your gonna leave it in there.

I washed it with body wash and put bandaids over it cause we dont have a disinfectant

Dirt jumpin is pretty fun, love the big kickers.

Shoulda taken this opportunity to learn how to manage your wounds and properly clean/dress them. You coulda done what they did on your own, if i went to the hospital everytime I did something similar to that id practically live there.

anyways, glad to hear you dont have a shard in you anymore haha
