So my mother was trying to open a package with kitchen shears and they slipped and she kinda stabbed her thumb. The cut wasn't too deep but enough that it didn't count as a slice. She kept her arm raised above her head for the next 10 minutes until she finally said she felt like she was going to faint. She lost very little blood so what was the reason she felt as though she was going to faint. Was it possible shock, or could it have been a chemical produced by the body to aid the injury in some way that causes a faint effect? Please be descriptive... if it is because of a chemical, what is the chemical? Thank you!
