Head Injured During Seizures Which Is Still Bleeding After Stitches. Should I Go To ER?
I had a seizure today and fell. I cut my head and got 2 staples. they missed a cut that over 6 hrs is still bleeding (very little but still) the wound with staples is not completely closed and the staples are not even close to my scalp (the top of them) can easily be pulled out. they were just pressed in by hand. that wound is still bleeding a little also. should I go back to the e.r?

Hello there!
Thank you for asking. of course you should. wound still bleeding and stitches not well placed is obvious for gettinfgback to ER rather hushing to it.
Get some rest and let the wound heal in clean aseptic environment.
