I got into an accident with the thorn bushes in my backyard. They sliced up both my calfs pretty good. And I mean real good. The scratches wrap around my calfs. I washes the cuts and then put bandaind. Should I just keep washing and then replacing the bandaids?

yes keep cleaning the wound and out on some antibiotic ointment. do this for the first few days then stop wrapping them allow air to finish the healing process. i have diabetes and this is how my doctor instructed me to care for my wounds.

Wash the cuts, smear ozonal or plysporin all over it and wrap guaze(which is that stuff that kind of looks like a cast but its softer)and tape the ends of the guaze with medical tape. Sould completly heal in a few weeks if process is repeated every 1-2 days.

wash them regularly with antiseptic wash and put some antiseptic powder on over the cuts before u put the band aid on. it will help them to get better quicker.
