Bleeding while cutting nails

dhanman · Oct 5, 2012

Hi all,

Please help as I am in a great tension, when I was cutting my 4 months old baby, he started crying, when I saw,his nails were bleeding,I sucked it and bleeding stopped,then I washed with water,applied baby cream and put some powder and again washed with water. Little red color is still there, I am worried whether I want to take him to pediatrician?it will become sceptic?or will it cause fever? Please help..

Thank u in advance

come on.no worries..this is not at all a problem.by mistake you could have cut a little tissue and that would have caused bleeding.No need of a pediatrician or anything.It will be alright the next day.it had happened couple of time with my kiddo too.
if you were using a normal nail cutter henceforth use a baby nail cutter.that would not harm the tissues even if its cut accidentally.

Thank u ramya..I sucked the blood from his fingers, by seeing the blood oozing. after that it came in to mind whether it will cause any infection to him..
