i think he had a blood infection. i am not sure how one gets a blood infection, but i dont think its as straight-forward as just getting infection in an open wound. that said, urgent care has to take you if you come in and say "i need immediate attention" or similar. then you just get a bill later which you may or may not ignore. butterfly bandages are tricky on areas that bend so much. also, sometimes you can find clinics who do stitches, cuz it is pretty easy procedure. (by 'clinic', i mean yknow for uninsured types. maybe call around or look on google?)
