^^ What part of the body is that? And were you good at Home Economics back in junior high school? If so..... get a needle and some thread and get to sewing! But wait until someone with more experience shows up to give you advice, hehehe.

Try and clean it a tad she will recover use betadine or anything except hydrogen peroxide okay no pain killer even mild soap warm water is better
