I fell over a ladder yesterday, where my face hit an edge of the ladder. It left a gash about 1/4 inch on the top of my nose, where you can lift up the skin. I dressed the wound and wearing a band-aid.
Should I pull off the skin to heal (will expose the open wound under band-aid), or keep the skin on top of the injury to heal?
Thanks!
Should I remove loose skin from an injury on my nose?
i would keep skin on the injury and badange it up till it stops being tender then let it air. you need to keep it clean and stuff it its big one maybe need stitches? if so do it now.
Reply:Kepp it covered to prevent infection and also change the band aid every 6 hours or so .
Reply:i think you should leave it on for a couple of days then take it off so it will become completely dead and it wont hurt as much and the gash will heal.but put neosporan on it so it wont scar and it will kill the bacteria and heal faster.oh and keep a band-aid on it to.
Reply:keep it coverd,remember to keep some kind of antibiotic cream on it.yes change the bandage often.
Reply:TRUE !! Most likely a new lair "R"r`r`R`r ` of skin will grow over it as it naturally heals !! But it might be best to leave any bandage off for awhile to let the elements %26amp; time heal it best !! %26lt;%26lt;G/L%26gt;%26gt;~!!! "R"r`r,r'r.r`,'-
Reply:don't remove the loose skin because it may cause opening of your wound
try to keep the healing natural and not controlled
