Cuts

Ok I took a knee to the head in training today, the cut was about an inch long and I went down to A&E and got it glue-stitched up. Just wondering if anybody knows any ways to make it heal any faster possibly? (Apart from follow the doctor's advice obviously!)

Cheers

Don't get kneed in the head again? :Angel:

 

Cheers mate I'll try that one

 

Go buy a tube of neosporan or vasatracen(Sp?). Both of those are proven to help a wound heal quicker with less risk of infection, just do not apply it on skin for over a week or else it may deteriorate the outer layer of skin.

Other than that I suggest you don't stretch the skin around the cut.

 

You could use butterfly bandages. + neosporin. That should do just fine.

 

Those silver healing band-aids are pretty sweet, if a tad pricey.
