And this is why you dont want to use one to get into a car. IF you must, be sure to be careful.

Damn dude, worse than I expected, that'll leave a mark.....

When the twins get older and they ask for something be like HEY, you see this scar you gave me when you were little, I think I'm entitled to not have to get you anything!........

No need to do that to look "HIP"! Only some people can pull that look off.

Hope you're okay Mr. Dad.

that's good. put some Neosporin ointment on there...it'll help with the healing and what-not...and reduces scarring.

good thing it didn't hit your eye or something...that would suck.

I did put on Neosporin as well prior to the bandage. I had a larger one, but within an hour or two it bleed back through. After I was done working for the day I recleaned and applied more Neosporin, then the butterfly in the pic. Proceeded to the Dr the folowing day and go the 'steri strips' put on.

The head likes to bleed alot, very vascular up there. Steri strips should hold the edges nicely. I sometimes use some Benzoin to help the steris hold the skin edges a little better. Sorry you had to go trough that.
