What to do if you feel throbbing after cut your finger?

1. Apply pressure to the wound. Use a clean cloth or bandage to apply pressure to the wound. This will help to stop the bleeding and reduce throbbing.

2. Elevate the injured area. Raising the injured area above your heart will help to reduce swelling and throbbing.

3. Apply ice to the area. Ice will help to reduce pain and swelling. Apply ice for 15-20 minutes at a time, several times a day.

4. Take over-the-counter pain medication. Pain relievers such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help to relieve pain and throbbing.

5. Keep the wound clean and dry. Change your bandage regularly to keep the wound clean and dry. This will help to prevent infection.

6. See a doctor if the throbbing persists. If the throbbing persists for more than a few days, or if you experience any other symptoms of infection (such as redness, swelling, or pus), see a doctor.

7. Protect the wound. Avoid activities that could put pressure on the wound or cause it to become dirty.

8. Seek medical attention if necessary. If the wound is deep or does not stop bleeding, seek medical attention immediately.
