Tending to my cuts used to be all part of it for me. I looked after them very well, to prevent scaring and infection.
Antiseptic cream once they stop bleeding. Then fixomul to keep the skin together and prevent scaring. I wash them through the fixomul but leave it on for a few days to at least bind together. More antiseptic if they are hot or sore. Butterfly stiches if they are a bit deeper. Vitamin E or moisturisers on the scars when they are healed over. I still have hideous very noticable scars though.
Been a long time and although I still get urges I do not want to go back there.
