Dan, I've always been a big believer of the let-it-scab-over-by-air-drying method. Once it scabs over, then I put some kind of antibiotic salve on to keep it flexible, but no bandage, you don't want to get back to unscabbed. Unscabbed allows infection in. I've been treating my own knees that way since the 1960's and I'm not dead yet.

I might occasionally douse it in hydrogen peroxide, but I'm not sure how crazy I am to do that. Most of the time, when I get a scrape, I just blot the blood and then ignore it. I might be crazy.

Oh, Daniel. I have no idea. It would seem the right thing to do, but I have no background that gives me any authority in telling you that.

Laundry is in the dryer. I've ordered groceries. I'm about to head off to the post office to mail things that should have gone out a week ago. I'm feeling all productive. Thank goodness for that, too, since I've been needing to do these tasks all week and keep putting them off.

I actually used to work for a Christian mortgage company. Although, I'm sure they wouldn't be sending out spam. They got PLENTY of business all on their own.

Crazy, sure, but not dead. And crazy is fine by me, you'll still be in Ohio for me to visit in April if you're only crazy.

Well, I did that the first couple of days, to keep the initial wound clean, but my doctor last year told me Hydrogen Peroxide is really over used and can irritate good skin healing processes.

I would be to do that, now that I have diabetes. One has to really keep a lookout for wounds, as diabetes can wreak havok with the infection. (As I found out last year by having an untended leg scratch put me in the hospital for five days)

That's why I'm glad you're keeping a real close eye on it. You said there was a little pus, which is okay if it's really just a little. I would, as I mentioned, keep antibiotic salve on it and if clothes chafe too much, then bandage it, but loosely so air can still get to it.

A really tiny blob, SailAweigh maybe 1/8 inch across. Gentle manipulation produced another 1/16th inch blob, then nothing.

That's pretty much my plan of action, I had leftover pantyliners and maxi pads from my leg wound last year, as well as more conventional wound fixins.
