If it takes days for your platelets to close a wound, go see a doctor.

Don't judge my platelets! They're just burnt out and underpaid. Inflation hasn't been good on their quality of life either.

You know what? If it takes more than 5 minutes, go see a doctor. You’ll bleed to death in days.

Waiting for somebody to do the math based on how big the wound how long would one last.

"Crust from your wound"? You couldn't word it a bit more disgustingly?

[–] Schnitzel_bub@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Solidified, dead blood. Is it still part of you, or is it just stuck in you like a cork? Quick, rip it off to get rid of this existentialist grey area by throwing it out the window.

Poetic comment

Well if they didn’t make it so itchy, maybe I wouldn’t have scratched it off. /s

I’m a grown man; I eat the crust.

Sheen: "Excuse me teacher, the scab I was picking flung off in your direction, can you please give it back?"

[–] Mubelotix@jlai.lu 4 points 1 year ago

It's actually a good thing to remove them, your body needs you to. The crust prevents the skin from properly reparing. No wonder why we all do this instinctively

I had to read this meme 10 tines because my mind kept going to pizza and I was thinking do blood platelets like pizza crust.

[–] Schnitzel_bub@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Pipl crust.

I have fast healing so by the time I even notice the scab and pick it off, the skin underneath has already been replaced.
