Leave the wound untouched...
Don't disturb it.
Use a cold pack... Drink cold water etc.
Don't touch with finger or tongue to see if it's bleeding or not....if u do so it definitely will bleed.
Avoid hard hot and spicy food for two days... Eat from the other side.
No hot beverages/ smoking/ alcohol consumption etc
U will be fine. Don't panic.
If possible see your Doctor once
