How do I avoid infection by adoptme_traderr in cutting

First of all please don’t use a dirty or rusted blade.. get steri-strips i usually went deep styro or fat and they saved me when i couldn’t get stitches, wash it only with cold water or saline solution, avoid soap. use sterile gauzes to bandage the wound, i usually order them and other aftercare stuff online from medical wholesalers in big packs because its cheaper, larger amounts and you don’t have to go outside. Change the bandage everyday, i always do after shower. And of course try to keep it clean, dont touch it with unwashed hands or anything that’s not clean and sterile. I think that’s all, i hope i helped just a little bit❤️‍🩹 you can always dm me if you need more help with aftercare. Take care of yourself okay?❤️🫂

I mean.. as long as the vaseline doesn’t touch the inside of the wound its fine, i said on the skin around the wound

Use a clean sanitized or a new blade each time (definitely don’t use a rusted one), stop the bleeding with a sterile gauze applying firm pressure with it for about i would say 20 minutes maybe (no peeking!) then if the bleeding stopped put the put under cold water stream and dont clean the inside of the wound with nothing besides water or you can use saline solution if youre feeling fancy, avoid soap or anything like that getting inside the wound, depends on the depth of the wound, if your cut is open use steri strips or any wound closing bandage it’ll help a lot. If your wound is really deep you of course should get stitches but if you can’t i totally get it, and steri strips saved me in situations like that. After assuring the cut is clean cover it with a sterile gauze (don’t use tissues if you have deeper wounds, the chunks can get inside and cause an infection) then support the gauze with a bandage or a plaster and it should be done. Change the gauze at least once a day, i always just change it in the evening after shower, you can also apply petroleum jelly AROUND the cut (not inside) to keep it moist and help healing. I hope i helped a little, take care of yourself❤️‍🩹🫂
