Question

I just swallowed some chicken bones by accident. It's late at night, and I don't have any bread around. I've tried eating a lot, but I've ended up vomiting five times, and it hasn't helped at all. What should I do? Is it okay to just sleep and see how I feel in the morning, or is there something I should do right now?

Question

I accidentally cut my finger on a sharp, rusty piece of iron today. I got a tetanus shot about two years ago, so I'm wondering if I need another one now. The bleeding was minimal and has stopped, but should I be worried about it?
