Thank you for your questions.

For your information, some acute or open wounds may not require medical treatment where they can treated at home. However, severe open wounds involving significant bleeding will require immediate medical attention.

Deep wound care should involve the following steps:

• stop the bleeding -use clean cloth or bandage, gently apply pressure to the wound
• clean the wound
• Treat the wound with antibiotics ointment- to prevent infections
• Close and dress the wound
• Routinely change the dressing
