I cut off part of finger. should i use bandages?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ideally if you cut it off just now and you have the part you could take the part and go to an emergency room and have it reattached - That should only be done if the part is large enough to affect the function of the finger. If you just have just a superficial cut of the finger. wash with warm water with some peroxide added - few ounces and then apply antibiotic ointment and cover with bandage.
