How To Cure A Cut Resulting In Bleeding Of The Foot?

Yesterday at aproximately 3:25p.m. I got a cut in my foot. I had it looked after at about 9:00p.m.It did bleed quite a bit and all I can remember during those hours is getting a ride home from my friend and my friend half carrying me inside and placeing me in a kitchen chair so I was properly supported.After that my friend said I kept on blacking out and fainting. I can only vaguely recall very few details. Why?

Hello and thank you for your question.
There are several issues here. If you were blacking out then it could mean that you lost too much blood and were not getting enough blood to your brain. You need to see a doctor as soon as possible to make sure that you do not need a transfusion. If you were in a lot of pain then that too could make you pass out and not remember things. If you have not had a tetanus shot in the last five years you need to get one of those. Please make arrangements to see a doctor or go to Emergency as soon as possible.
Regards
