A section of surface skin, about

1 square cm, was cut from the

Inside of my thumb in a freak

Accident. Bandaged and

Antibiotic cream done at home.

However, 24 hours later, I still

Have a point bleeder. Diabetic

(under control) over 60.

Should I seek medical help?

As a diabetic you should be aware you are susceptible to gangrene in extremeties, even if your diabetes is under control. That sounds like a serious injury, yes, I would seek medical assistance just so you know how to treat it in case of infection. Good luck.\
