How do you heal a large cut?
I tripped on the side walk on my way home from gymnastics and did a face plant ( luckily I did not break my glasses considering I had or ready lost some that week) I cut up my face and my knee real bad and I do not know how to treat it except for cream and a Band-Aid. Any advice?

Wash the cuts with soap and water, apply antibacterial ointment, bandage them up to keep them clean. Change bandage and apply new ointment once a day or when it gets wet or dirty.

Make sure the cuts are cleaned before you treat them. We use Hydrogen Peroxide to help kill the germs in the cuts, then I like to use Bactine because it will make it feel better and will make it heal faster. Some creams are good too to kill the germs. If the cut is too big for a band-aid use a piece of sterile gauze and put tape on it to hold it. If the cut is real deep, it may need stitched up at the doctor's or at the hospital.

Neosporin and bandaids. It won't take long.
