[quote name='karsh']I didn't need stitches for it, but I did get a wicked cut on my right palm. For some reason, there was a razor in the side panel of my dad's car one time, and I reached into the thing to get something. Unfortunately, I got a handful of razor instead. I still have a scar on my right palm to this day from it. That cut bled like there was no tomorrow though.[/QUOTE]
It's never a good thing to hear the doctor tell you cut your hand in just the right place. :shock:
To make a long story short, I was walking along the top tier of a bleacher, 2 of the 3 support screws gave way, as did the bleacher, and I fell from the top of it. Left hand hit the support post and cut my hand on the palm and along the base of the thumb.
According to the doctor, if the one on my palm was 1/4" to the left, I would've had nerve damage in my thumb, index finger and middle finger, 1/4" to the right, would've done the same to other two fingers. The doctor said I couldn't have picked a better spot if I planned it.
16 stitches for the one on my palm, 5 for the one on the base of my thumb.
Over 15 years ago, if memory serves.
