Do I need stitches? I cut off maybe ~0.5 cm of my thumb with an axe. My roommate is saying I need stitches, but its not really a gash or anything so I don't see what they could do. I lost a decent amount of blood, but probably <1/2 cup, so other than the obvious discomfort (I know it's gonna suck when I shower) I don't think there's anything wrong, but I just wanna make sure.

just finish cutting the tip off, and put a bandage on it. You'll be fine

Sticthes are for stopping the bleeding and reducing scare tissue. You probably want to have it sewed on if you have doubts about care and securing the tip

sub-dermal injuries can result in much more serious infections than your typical cuts & scrapes. tenosynovitis for example. I would see a doctor. he might even save the tip if you still have it.

They still use cyanoacrylate superglue in first aid
The surgical stuff is FDA approved, more flexible and less prone to side effects but regular superglue would probably do the job still

Bro this is what it looks like after 24 hours. I don't think I'm losing my thumb anytime soon. I might get some antibiotics tomorrow though. It's staying together pretty well and it's not bloody or messy or discharging or anything. I've had plenty of full on infections that I didn't treat and they eventually healed. I have had to get antibiotics a few times though.

It is insurance, but less centralized and a lot less exploitive. The US' medical field is so corrupt, it just leaves you amazed. I mean when I looked up insurance for travelling there was one option for America and one for the rest of the world. Literally every other country including ones with warzones are cheaper for me than the USA.

My thumb is looking really good today and there is not any serious discomfort or pain, given the severity of the injury. Only problem is that I can't get the band-aid off and its stuck on really well. I tried soaking it in water. I don't want to rip it off because that would almost definitely dislodge the tip.
