Suggest Remedy For The Cut Wound On Leg

Hello I have just cut my leg shaving and it came from a very small raised vein of only about 1 to 2mm in size. It seemed like there had been a lot of blood as it spouted out I hadn't realised at first but noticed it around me on the floor and the towel I applied pressure and it stopped almost instantly . Please advise x

Hello dear patient!
Welcome to HCM and thank you for sharing
your concerns with us!

I understand very well you concerns and I'm trying to calm you down a little bit.
I want to ensure you that is not a problem if you have kept a good hygiene of the wound after you have cut the leg.

If you have rinsed with water and after the pressure the bleeding has stopped you have just to disinfect the wound with alcohol or povidone jodine to prevent wound infection.

Disinfect the wound every day till it begins to heal.
Keep it clean and dry!
There is no need to worry about!

Take care and i wish you a good health!
Best regards!
DR ERIOL.
