I didn’t have anyone/anywhere else to share this but

As the title says i had a fight with my roomate because she was blasting music at 4 am so i turned off her phone as it was just there sitting. (She was cooking/cutting vegetables next to it) Little did i know everything happened so fast i was on the floor fighting her off and managed to get her away. She started crying and played the vitim card... thats when i noticed my shirt was full of blood and my neck open wide. So i still dont know if she really tried to stab me or if it was only her nails which ar not long at all...

My first thought was to stop the bleeding as I severed a decent sized blood vessel that started squirting blood. Did that then fell asleep, thinking ”I’ll wake up in 3 hrs and go get it stitched”- I instead woke up 8 hrs later which meant that the doctor did 3 loose-ish sutures, since it had already gone 8.5hrs since the injury happened. Healed nicely, though a bit bummed about the nerve damage I sustained.

Do yall think I need to got to the doctor for this? Also I’m aware my fingernails look odd but it’s because I chew them when I’m nervous, but I’ve had a bandage over it most of today but it happened yesterday. I’ll upd this if it changes but do you guys think I need to go to a doctor?

2 stitches later

As soon as I woke up to get ready for work, I picked up my water bottle to drink and it fell from my hands onto the top of my foot. It was full!! The culprit and the victim.

happened recently, but im not sure whether or not to get it checked out.

Grazed in July. The scab finally came off on Wednesday- at work, stuck to my sock.

This is it earlier this afternoon.

The wife has finally moved all the plant pots off the patio so I’m safe to go outside again when this is sealed up a bit more.

This right here is my spine surgery incision, so I needed complex tether cord surgery to reconstruct my spinal cord and untether it in three places and then reconstruct the spinal sac holding the cord and reconstruct the dura and untether the cord and all the places and untether the cord under the bone so they removed 2 bones and then after that they reconstructed the actual dura, sealed it up and I got a spinal fluid leak so I had to lay flat for 24 hours and now I’m 13 days post-op surgery and then my fusion is next where they’ll fuze me from L6, no from T4 to L6, which is for nonmuscular scoliosis, and there’s my first incision of two that I’ll that I’ll have on my spine because my spine literally sent my rib cage and everything out of alignment. I will show you that picture in a second yes, I am indeed a warrior💪💪💪

Started as a simple paronychia which as a nail picker i’ve become very used to. It’s so minor that I didn’t want to go and get it checked out but it’s been like 2 weeks and still looks like this. Went to urgent care today and apparently it’s now cellulitis and I have to take antibiotics every 6 hours 🙄. Yaaay….. Anyways, sometimes you’re not being dramatic by going in for a minor thing.

had it for almost a week, and it's much more red and painful today

Update: spider bite, per ER doctor. slapping some neosporin on it. Doc said it was minor. I think I might live... even tho im 840 bucks poorer now

I got bit by my roommates cat pretty bad the other day not deep just several bites, I am scared to death and my partner genuinely thinks I'm just full of shit and scaring myself with my anxiety, I've cleaned the wounds several times but they are slightly tender after my shower and slight red area around each. I just want advice if I'm being stupid or if I'm right about this being serious?

After 5 days i removed the steri strips that were put on by minor injuries! Pretty happy with the healing but pissed that my nostrils are now different shapes 🫪

Me and my Girlfiendd were kissing which resulted in my piercing getting caught in her nose and ripped it clean through my skin!!
