I had a friend who cut his arm pretty bad. He decided to try to sew it up himself like Rambo. :-D He said it would have worked except that, due to where the cut was, he could only use one hand so he couldn't hold the skin well enough to get the needle to go through on the far side of the cut. He thought that maybe a needle with a curved tip would've made it easier but he didn't bother to bend one. I think he just made a butterfly bandage for the cut & let it heal by itself without ever going to the doctor.
He managed to shoot himself in the leg with a .22 pistol one time too, #-o but that's another story. Didn't see a doctor for that one either. :angry7:
