How deep is it?????? Your hand probably went into some kind of shock, that's why it's numb. If you cut it by a finger, you may have cut a tendon. Just to be safe, go to the er!!

your hand is in shock and yes you should go to the emergency room NOW. An deep injury to an extremity is easily infected. Wash with cool water and apply gentle pressure with a clean dry cloth.

Get to the E.R., asap, if you do need stitches, there is a short time period for it to be done, and if it's numb,you could have cut a nerve. It's best to let a nurse or Doctor to determine.NOW get off the computer and get to the nearest emergency room, NOW!!!

Yes you need to go to the ER. It being numb isn't a good sign

It means that you cut very essential blood vessels nerves and maybe there is an internal bleeding too.
It would be a good idea to quickly visit the doctor so that you won`t get a serious infection!

it means that your body is sending endorphins to the area to take the pain away..if you have any doubt whatsoever that it will continue to bleed after you have applied substantial pressure then you should go to the ER

Yes, you should go to the E.R. If I cut my hand that bad the last thing I would be doing is asking questions about it on Answers.

why would you waist your time on the computer if you have cut yourself if you apply pressure it will stop bleeding but you need your other hand to do this so get of the computer and sort yourself out.
