Open cut stuck to bandaid..?

Question

i cut my finger last nitee like a big chunk and it started bleeding uncontrolably. i put a bandaid on (dry) and it is now stuck to the cut. i tryed pulling it and it hurts really bad i i feel it will undo the heeling and reopen it. i also soaked it and it didnt work. can someone help ?

Answer 1

Ok what did you soak it in?

My daughter did this and I soaked hers in the warm bath water while she was bathing ofcourse she had bubble bath in the tub so I am sure that helped in the bandaid falling off. well actual it slipped off. Anyways give it a try.

I am no professional but personally I would rub some vaseline or on it or soak it while I was taking a bath the water/soak/steam should help.

Answer 2

I would just wait until it falls off on it's own

Answer 3

you should go see a docter, to have it removed properly. If you try to do it yourself, like you said, it would remove more skin and would also cause a lot of pain. If you don't remove it soon, the band aid would start to get bacteria, and your cut would get infected.

Answer 4

continue to soak it, it will come off. when you apply another bandaid, use some antibiotic ointment or use telfa pad bandaids so it does not stick again if it starts to bleed some more

Answer 5

try using baby oil and keep soaking it.be sure to clean it with soap and water after the bandage is removed.then before putting another bandage on,use an antibiotic cream.

Answer 6

soak it in warm water then gently take it off next time use a little bit off ointment or even a tad bit of vaseline. If the water don't work try olive or vegetable oil and just get about a table spoon or as much as you can of it under the band aid and again gently try to it off.

Answer 7

get some gos and towels to stop the bleeding and yank it off because if the scab heals over the bandage its not gonna be good so you just got to get it off and get a new bandage on
