Answers:
How deep is the wound!? Try a antibiotic ointment if it isnt too deep!. Keep the wound clean and dry!.Rinse it once daily with peroxide- Keep it covered with a bandage during the day , and remove the bandage at night to let the air get to it!. Watch for redness, swelling, and discharge!. Pay special attention and watch for red steaks near the wound ( a sign of blood poisoning)!.!. If it is very red and warm to the touch ( feverish) , you had better see a doctor!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

if you are not happy in about 24 hours that the wound is looking any better get a medic to have a look and they will supply you with more sterile dressings so the area does nt get worseWww@Answer-Health@Com
