Five Worst Places To Get A Cut

Five worst places to get a cut

Everyone's had a cut before, whether it be from a knife, a fall, or even a paper cut. They can cause pain and discomfort, and can potentially be serious of not treated correctly. These are, in my opinion, the worst places do have a cut.

Bottom of foot

Not only will this injury be very uncomfortable when any pressure is put onto the foot through walking, this injury will probably take longer to heal. If the cut is deep, as the scab, that could form, depending on the nature of your cut, might be damaged through constant pressure being put on the area. This could be a good thing, however, as if the area begins to bleed, the pressure put on the foot will help to stop bleeding, and will aid in a scab being remade.

Under armpit

Again, this injury will probably take longer to heal then most, as the constant friction put apon the cut through movement of the arm will cause any scab to rub off. Unlike the bottom of the foot, there should be hardly any pressure put on this cut, therefore, there will no aid to stop bleeding. There is also a high possibility of a rash forming, from the fiction around.

Inside of mouth

The severity of this area really depends on the size, and depth of the cut. Many people do have small cuts, spots, and ulcers in their mouth, which serve as too much of a concern in daily life. Some mouth cuts, however, are a lot more severe. A large cut across one side of the mouth can effect many factors of daily life, for example, it can obstruct talking, and in some cases, breathing. It would also be difficult to eat, especially sour things.

Anywhere on the face

 Cuts on the face are normally quite a big deal, as there are many tiny, delicate blood vessels on the face, so to stop scarring from a cut, stitches, or survival glue is often needed to be used. Many cuts on the face are caused by the head being hit on or by something, so other complications, such as concussion or brain damage can also come along with the injury.

Neck

Deep cuts to the neck almost always result in death if the injury is not treated immediately by a Doctor. This is because there are many veins, and muscles in the neck that are vital for survival, many of the veins leading directly to the heart. If one of these veins was to be cut, you would most likely die within 10 minutes.

So, there is my top five worst places to get a cut! I recommend that you try not to get cut in any of these places :)
