When to seek medical help

I have been cutting my thighs lately with a razor blade. The cuts are pretty deep, and long. Some are gaping. They also ooze for over with
24 hours, and will seep unto my clothes. I have a few cuts that are about a week old, and seem to have stopped healing. Both legs hurt to walk, and there is a firey redness and heat surrounding certain cuts.

I'm wondering and worrying about seeing my Dr. Could the cuts be infected? They aren't as horrible looking as the photos I saw on Google, but are painful.

I'm so scared bc I don't have the strength to talk to my Dr about this.

It is definitely best to get them checked. The warmth/redness and the stalling of healing are concerning. If they are over 12 hrs old or so, the dr won't close them. Too much risk with sealing in infection, but you might need antibiotics and advice on cleaning and bandaging, given the area. For example constant rubbing or touching can cause greater risk of infection, so some may need to be bandaged while others don't. A dr would be able to tell you.

If not your dr, what about an urgent care place? Not quite the ER but also not your dr. Trust me, Dr's see this stuff more than we would like to think, and (where I am) as long as your not an immediate risk or sui, they can't force psych hosp.

Please go get them checked out. I know it's hard, but it's important to be safe.

I agree you need to go to the doctor as soon as possible. Leg wounds are particularly dangerous. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Please be safe...

I know its hard but maybe go to an urgent care place and lie say its cat or something

How are you doing now? you are in my thoughts
