Howdy - daughter is almost 5 years old and slammed her thumb in the truck door today. After a few tears and blood, I got it bandaged up and she was able to go about her day with no pain.
My wife removed the bandages tonight to clean/put new ones on it, and the gash might be pretty deep. It's not currently bleeding. Thumbnail is cracked.
My question: If she isn't in any pain, is it necessary to take her to an urgent care tomorrow?
I can provide pics if requested but don't want to gross up the thread. If we can keep the wound clean and dry, can we manage it at home?
