blood is like superglue, should I be concerned?

[timewerx]

Recently, I got cut deep enough to bleed, although bleeding stopped almost immediately.

But my blood is what concerned me. In just few seconds, it glued my fingers together real strong like superglue. It took some effort and some pain to pull them apart.

Otherwise, the blood looks normal, thin and very fluid, not thick. I drink plenty of water a day and exercise.

I was trying to force the cut to bleed to avoid infection but only got a tiny drop, the wound sealed very quickly.

High blood sugar makes the blood sticky. Are you diabetic?

Sounds like a win to me. I get cuts that bleed for hours. Have to cover them with all kinds of things to stop the bleeding. I'd rather have your problem, than mine.

You need to have some blood work done.

You might have coagulation problems. Do you take aspirin? Aspirin thins the blood so it runs smoothly throughout the body, but be careful if you get a bad cut becuase you can bleed to death.

No. Might be related to coagulation instead. Overactive coagulation might be trouble?

Otherwise, I feel fine, never had abnormal blood pressure, heart rate at rest is 70 bpm.

Yes it can cause serious trouble.

I'll probably get my blood checked, soon. It would be needed if I get an offer in the new job I'm applying for.

I'll let you guys know how it goes, thanks!

Never. Deemed unfit everytime (underweight).

I has been like that since birth. I'm a male with female built so if I used the female BMR table I'm at the correct weight.
