Damn, I'm not winning here. Already made an appointment to see the doctor tomorrow about the finger I slashed with the "safety" razor this morning. Now, while getting the rubbish bin out, I've sliced a open flap of skin covering the 2nd knuckle of the adjacent finger. Neither of these injuries can be sutured.

Re the earlier cut: there's a mass of encrusted blood under the first two sticking plasters. It acts as an armoured coating so it doesn't hurt so much when I bump it.

I reckon the clinic's nurse will be involved with the treatment. She's my best friend's aunt, so he's gonna give me some grief over the incidents.
