-
yes
-
Yes many times.

Oh, yes. In my job I get cuts all the time. A few have been pretty deep. Quick sterilization and covering is the key. And all have healed pretty fast. I am a quick healer and they say that is a sign of good health and nutrition. Most have not even left really visible scars. I am a believer in Vitamin E as an ointment for cuts and any type of skin infection. It has worked well for me.
-
Many...Dont ever have money for the ER.
-
Cuts of course, did have a deep ones I patched up with home made butterfly stitches healed quite nicely.
-
Hundreds of times.
-
Hundreds of times. I've only went twice for stitches and that was because other people who were with me made me go, I don't really care if I get scars or not, and you stop bleeding eventually.

I get a cut or at least bleed almost daily(carpenter),once I ran the small grinder through the skin around the left thumb(second joint and lower)it bled for hours,I now have a 1 1/2" scar there and never saw a doctor(I was on a lot of cocaine and didn't feel the pain much)

Most of the time, I can only remember receieving treatment for a handful of cut injuries.
-
Err yes... all the time.
-
I don't think I've ever been to a doctor or an ER for a cut. I usually use direct pressure and rubbing alcohol.

Many Times ... When I was a little younger and more macho, I was working with my dad on one of his houses and put a deep 2 inch cut in my thigh from a sharp piece of reinforcement bar ... Rather than have to wait in the hospital emergency room for 4 + hours, I went home and put 4 stiches in my leg using a thimble, needle, thread, and some disinfectant ... It healed up OK apart from a scar. It took me 40 minutes and I was able to be back at the job to help pour the concrete ... needless to say, my dad was happy. I learnt from this, that skin is actually quite tough. Peace.

Doctors don't heal cuts. They may clean them and cover them to prevent infection. In some cases they can use stitches to hold the edges, but in the end it is your body which heals the cut.
-
Yep and it's what I prefer.
-
I gave myself stitches before,I cut my foot on a piece of glass and cleaned and stitched it up.When my mother saw my handiwork,she almost passed out!LOL!
-
80's
-
Yes. That is the miracle of the human body God made. Just make sure clean and closed and it will heal.
-
Sure. But I have a large scar and some weakness because I decided against seeing a doctor to get the muscle in my leg stitched up... ten years later and the scar is finally starting to go away.
