Ouch

I've just chopped a 1p sized chunk out of my index finger on my right hand... It was held on by a little bit of skin so I stuck it back together with superglue and I'm now applying lots of germolene new skin over it in an attempt to make it hold together for practice tonight. We have a gig on New Years eve!

Bugger..

Unsurprisingly shoving neat superglue into flesh seems to hurt, but not as much as Germolene new skin does.. ouch..

I would strongly recommend seeking urgent medical assistance.
Not treating something like that properly could well result in the loss of the whole finger.

Thanks, I did consider it but the doctors will be rammed with people with real ailments. If I did not need to play I would have just strapped it up. I'll see how it is tonight then probably take the fake skin off and let it heal on it's own for a week. My sister in law is a senior casualty nurse, I'll see her over the next couple of days so I'll get her to take look.
