A member asked:
I stapled my finger and it stopped bleeding. i put a band-aid on it. am i alright now?

Finger injury: Yes, you have done the right thing. Every day wash with soap and water and either air dry or use clean gauze to dry and reapply bandaid. It should heal in a couple of days. If you have swelling or pain or redness over the next few days, that could mean you have an infection and would need to consult a doctor for antibiotic treatment.
