Have you tried to keep firm pressure on it for the whole 30 mins?
If after 30 mins of firm pressure, it still bleeds, then yes, go to urgent care.
To apply firm pressure, I would wrap the finger with many tight layer off paper towel. Make it thick and somewhat tight. Then wrap this with any kind of tape, tightly (not enough to cut off your finger's circulation).
If it bleeds through this, go to the urgent care.

You need to apply pressure to it for about 30 sec.(Yes it may hurt a little) but this helps stop the bleeding...If It keeps bleeding then i suggest you go to the E.R.(emergency room)

i'm guessing you're concerning the dewclaws. in the event that they are loosely linked and the canines keeps tearing them, this is recommended to contemplate having them surgically bumped off. this is regularly carried out while doggies are basically some days previous, yet could be carried out with an older canines. communicate on your vet approximately it and spot what he recommends.
