Also been there and done that. Went to ER to have it checked out. They put on a pressure bandage and told me to use antibiotic cream when I changed bandage. The very next day ordered a Klutz glove.

I got one too. It's not cut proof, but cut resistant.

You also can buy from O Lipfa a safety guard. It attaches nicely on your ruler.

Whatever it takes to keep our fingers safe. Think about it, especially should you have younger ones that are learning.

I think this is a buy that could keep a headache away. :wink:
