Your body doesn’t heal itself. Cuts need stitches that must be permanent. Bones need to be screwed together even if just cracked. How you doing?

Yep. RIP 13-year-old me getting my first menstrual period. But probably died long before that after first needle prick.

If you’ve ever broken a bone, just assume you’d be dead of infection.

Actually let’s take this further: multicellular life wouldn’t exist. Life wouldn’t exist. Cell division requires both cells to heal themselves. This is a silly question.

You went too deep.

Yes it is a silly question. Just trying to have some fun.

I’m not the first born child, I likely would not be alive

Very very very dead. The first cut you get would cause you to bleed out and die. It would be a miracle to survive to one year old

Stitch that bad boy up to stop the bleeding. You’re just stuck with the stitches for life.

Unfortunately most stitching doesn’t work by itself, you still need natural clotting. The stitching can help hold the wound together so the clotting is more effective and blood losses lessened. But without clotting factor you’re going to need to glue it closed
