Cut continues to bleed?
Last night I cut my thumb at work while scooping ice cream. The rim of the ice cream box is metal and it cut my thumb pretty bad. I let it bleed out for about 45 minutes before I put a bandaid on it. Today I took the bandaid off, took a shower and then noticed my thumb started bleeding again. So I just took another bandaid off and my cut still seems bad/like it will start to bleed. If I keep a bandaid on it will it eventually heal on its' own or will I need stitches? I think thr cut is kind of deep. Thanks!

You have missed the window for stitches so you can forget that. Keep it covered and hope it heals in a reasonable amount of time.

It should heal on its own. Get stitches if you cannot control the bleeding.
