I\'ve fallen and I can\'t get up...

Well, that's not quite true since I did get up in the end.

I grazed my hand(s) on ground when I tripped in this hole on the pavement, for those that want to see the damage:

Anyway, I'm sorry to say that people who sent me stuff to mod will have to wait a bit longer until the wound gets better. I mean I can probably still work on the mods, but the quality of the final product will be affected. You wouldn't want that would you? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Hurts like hell when I wash my hands, I haven't tried washing my hair yet...

doesn't look so bad, why not just tape the scrapes over to wash and mod? but if you want to take a little vacation and play the didgeradoo a while, hey, no worries, mate.. maybe you need some refresher 'walkabout' classes? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I always wash out bloody wounds with hydrogen peroxide.. I don't think I have ever gotten a cut that became infected.. get well soon. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

Pre-wash pics? Just add some dirt..

It's dried up already, so I can leave it uncovered.

Re: I\'ve fallen and I can\'t get up...

May I suggest bacitracin ointment, 2x/day /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Plain old soap & water works great for these relatively superficial abrasions. Peroxide doesn't treat tissues that well, so I would avoid it (works great on removing blood, though /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif )

Hope everything heals well!
