Question

- The accidented finger was the index of the right hand.

Answer 1

OUCH!!! Once your wound is closed and stitches are gone. Go buy some Vitamin E capsules. Poke a hole in one end of capsule with a needle and apply that 2-3 times a day. It's Great at getting rid of scars. Don't get discouraged it will take a while possibly months but, if you do that 2-3 times daily it will really help. Just rub it in like any lotion. It's the cheapest way and if you read all scar serums they ALL have huge amounts of Vitamin E in them.

Answer 2

I about cut my finger off last winter doing dishes and got 6 stitches after a glass broke with my hand in it.
The scar is a fine line and will always be there as a reminder not to stick my hand in a glass and twist it.
Unless you are a hand model, who gives a ****?
