It's a fairly deep cut, but more like a knife slice than a nail puncture. I'm assuming that's why it was slow to clot--the depth, and the sharpness of the object.
This is really not the kind of cut that cries for a tetanus shot.
It will leave a nice long white scar, however.
If it keeps bothering you or keeps bleeding, I can speak for the virtues of stitches, which cause things to heal almost immediately. I have eight stitches in my palm because of a wine bottle.
Thanks, y'all. I figured I was being a little paranoid about the tetanus thing, but better paranoia than a pointless and and agonizing death!
Keep it elevated, Susan. That makes especial difference to the pain, especially in a hand.
Will Eisner died yesterday too. (Yes, I appear to be on the dying artists e-mail list.) He was another brilliant talent and worked right to the end. I never met him, but he was speaking here in November and I meant to go.

We've been talking about it in the Jossiverse thread. I reposted Neil Gaiman's tribute to Eisner there.
Lilty, insent with a question about your resume.
Seconding the elevation. Heal-ma (heel of hand-ma?) Susan...
