Get the ones that look like small dots. The have adhesive and should stick just fine.
thankyou :) how do i put these bandages on ?
Apply it 3 or 4 times a day. Give it a few days and if you see no change your going to have to see your Dr. Make sure you get those little bandages to keep the ointment from rubbing off, that will help a lot.
thanks alot :) how long should it take to heal you reckon ?
Yes, you can buy these yourself. Just go to any drug store or grocery store. You should have a choice of either an antibiotic ointment or the cream. It comes in a tube and you just put some on the cut a few times a day.
ok thankyou :) would i be able to do that at 16 years old ?
I've never heard of Superdry. We don't have anything like that around where I live. You can go to any drugstore or supermarket to get the antibiotic ointment and little bandages there.
ok thanks so much, would i be able to purchase this antibiotic ointment at somewhere like superdry and is there any names to look out for ?
Okay, that's what going on. If you keep picking the scab off then it will take forever for it to heal. Yes, leave it alone and get some antibiotic ointment to put on it. You can get this at any store. They also make these tiny bandages, get some of those too. The bigger ones will just rub off against your clothes where as the tiny ones should stay put.
im embarrased is the truth, im 16, any treatments you recommend i could get without going to the dr's ? i always used to fiddle about with the cut and not let it heal but im leaving it alone for good now
Keeping it dry will help but it's still going to rub against your clothes.Have you tried an antibiotic ointment on it? This concerns me because it's been going on so long. I really think it would be a good idea to see your Dr.
ok cheers, should i just keep it as dry as possible for the time being xxx
A month ago and your still having problems? I really recommend seeing your Dr. I do think it could be an infection. It's just better to be safe.
i dont think its an infection because its not sore and doesnt smell or isnt too sore but i cut it about a month ago, ivee stop maserbatinn this week so should it heal?
From what I can see, it looks like you might have an infection going on. Get in to see your Dr so they can take a look at it. You may need antibiotics.
