Iodine or Bactroban wound disinfectant spray

Vaseline

1. Stop bleeding

Generally, small wounds will stop bleeding on their own. If necessary, gently press the wound with a clean cloth or bandage until the bleeding stops. If the bleeding still cannot stop, seek medical attention immediately.

2. Cleaning

For superficial wounds, you can choose disinfectants with less irritation to skin tissue such as iodine tincture or Bactroban wound disinfectant spray, and then rinse with saline or clean water. It is not recommended to use hydrogen peroxide or alcohol to clean wounds, as they are highly irritating and not conducive to wound healing;

3. Use Vaseline or anti-inflammatory ointment

After cleaning the wound, gently apply a layer of Vaseline on the wound to keep it moist, which is conducive to wound healing and less likely to leave scars. If the wound shows symptoms of infection, it is recommended to use anti-infective ointment, such as mupirocin ointment.

4. Bandage

Bandage the wound with clean gauze and change it at least once a day. If the gauze comes into contact with water or becomes dirty, please change it immediately.

Some understanding of scarring caused by wounds:

The process of wound tissue healing is itself a process of scar formation;

Whether scars are left depends mainly on the individual's constitution and the depth of the trauma;

Of course, improper treatment may also lead to deepening of scars. Be careful not to force contact with the scab when the wound is scabbing. Let it fall off naturally and heal, which will help the wound recover.

Precautions

If the abrasion does not stop bleeding or the wound is large, please seek medical attention immediately.

If the wound is accidentally infected, you can use Bactroban's Mupirocin Ointment to kill the bacteria that cause the infection and provide a good foundation for the recovery of the skin lesions.
