i was unpacking from a trip and sliced my finger on something. i didnt really notice it until i looked and saw it was bleeding. it doesnt even hurt, but part of my fingernail was sliced too. should i be worried? i washed it off and put a bandaid on it, but do you think its gonna be ok? i dont want to have to have like my fingernail removed or anything. im just concerned. thanks so much!

Depends on how bad the cut is. If it's a good, deep cut them you might want to take it to the doctor to see if you need stitches. But if it just looks like a normal slice then clean it up really well and just put a band aid on it.

And if it cut of part of your fingernail, once it starts to grow out, make sure you cut off anything that is like hanging out. Fingernails grow back, don't worry.
