If you have a cut that won't stop bleeding (it's more like a rip) what can I do without having to go to the doctor? Read detail...

one of my horses bit me... she grabbed my lip and pulled. it is a tear about 5 inches long and 3-5 centimeters deep. the pains killing me but I really don't want to make my parents pay a hospital fee. I am putting pressure on it but it won't stop bleeding. it happened about 3 hours ago.

I'm sure your parents would rather pay a hospital fee than you be hurt. It sounds like it's a pretty bad tear/cut. You definitely need to go!

Too bad. Go. You need blood. You need stitches. And you need painkillers.

Omg you might begin to bleed out or get an infection because it was a horse. I'm begging you, GO TO THE HOSPITAL NOW!

You need to get that sutured so you do not have an ugly scar. Your parents want to keep you marrying material.....

Get to a hospital A.S.A.P.! The risk from infection alone is enough that it's not worth the risks. Your parents will probably be more angry that you waited! Take care, get care, Good luck. :)
