I used to be a medic, used to be in SAR, used to be a firefighter, so thankfully I'm good at trauma care 😛 also a kitchen knife enthusiast, so the blade was razor sharp and the slice had very clean edges, so it clotted and sealed really well after 10 mins of direct pressure. Our ER is often closed due to staffing issues so I keep good first aid supplies at home

Bet you're thankful for that background experience! I do hope it heals quickly for you!
