Yeah, those hurt worse than cutting your whole hand off. Not that I actually have cut my whole hand off, I'm exaggerating.
Bath and Body Works and Origins both make a salt scrub. If you use that on your hands, all those little cuts will heal really quickly. Stings like the dickens, tho.

Those salt scrubs make me feel greasy.

Yeah, it's basically salt in an oily base, so the salt fixes the cuts and then it moisturizes. I had a sunburn a few years ago and it left a patch of skin that never feels quite right, and it helps with that, too. If you give it a few minutes, the oil soaks in and stops feeling quite so greasy.

I have such dry skin that the contrast is pretty obvious, no matter how long I wait. Usually the next day, though, my skin does feel softer.
I sympathise as did the same thing myself today. Was folding up a letter. 
For that amount of pain, you certainly expect to have a really spectacular injury to show off to all your friends.
Sadly mine just bled like nobody's business for five minutes then disappeared as if it had never happened.

I recently visited a factory that produces cardboard packaging (work, definitely not pleasure). It was like entering one of Dante's rings of hell - my hands stayed firmly in my feckin pockets!

A couple weeks ago I cut open that bit on my hand between the thumb and the index finger on a bit of cardboard. Very painful, and took ages to heal. mostly because I kept picking at it. I find paper and cardboard cuts makes a refreshing change of injury. I'm dangerously clumsy when it comes to sharpened objects and things made of glass. Constantly cutting my hands open on knives, or smashing glasses on the floor then walking on the bits with bare feet. Probably the most bloody incident was when I stepped on my scalpel. Most unpleasant to look at was when I accidentally imbedded a mounted needle in my thigh.
So, I've always got really impressive injuries to show to people but because they're always done with something sharp they never really hurt.
I've only got three cuts on my hands at the moment. It's been a good week.

I've not your familiarity with encounters involving sharp objects, but back over the holidays I was chopping up some red cabbage for a salad and my finger slipped. My wonderfully sharp knife sliced a nice portion of the tip of my finger, and the only thing that stopped from going right through was my nail. That sucker never hurt. I couldn't believe it. It looked horrible, but never gave me a bit of pain.Litany said:
Oh, and the clumsiest person I've personally ever known was the mother of a guy I dated years ago. She sounded it much like you here, but he crowning moment of glory was when she sat on knife, point first.

No, THIS is how to woo a woman, courtesy of Swiss Toni -
