Finger knife cut
Hi, I cut myself on my index finger, and it's quite deep where I can see my bone. Would I need stitches to close the cut or will it heal on it's own?

Hello. As per your history given, yes indeed, you require stitches without fail and a course of antibiotics. Kindly seek an opinion from a General surgeon as soon as possible and a T.T Shot within 24 hours of injury. Regards.
