That looks good and clean. If your Tetanus is up to date you can concentrate on not putting that hand in your pocket.

You have not yet shared the first 10 words uttered post trauma.

Sunday Morning,....and it was pretty obvious that work on that pump was off the sched. for a while.
I bandaged it up, cahnged my shirt, and headed off to the Sierra Springs Church, Hereford Az.
Got there in time to line out with several other bust up folk.
Lady sitting beside me had a runt buckling wrapped in a towel, bottle feeding it.
Nice place, good sermons, fair music,....
Got another pic this AM,( right at 72 hours) after an hour of Sun and fresh air,....I'll post it in a bit.

Every man should have a tube of panalog in his first aid kit. Will take out infection in one day. Numbs the affected area and heals much faster. Get a tube from your vet. It will save a hunting trip. powdr

After feeding and morning chores, I dismounted a light bandage worn overnight last night, and let this minor wound get some Sun, and dry air (fulla' dust, pollen, and radioactive dust from bleepashima)

right at 72 hours, took these.

That little blackish red speck visible left of center is what's left of the hole within which the falange was peeking from.

I can't lay this all on the "vet medicine",....been pretty lucky, indeed blessed with good fast, and infection free healing most always.
This Vetricine / Microcyn Gel mojo sure seems to speed up regrowth of healthy tissue, though.

Okay I'm convinced. I'm gonna dump the four or five tubes of Neosporin I got laying around and get a bottle of that stuff.
I've seen it on the shelf but didn't pay much attention to it.
It's on the list for my next trip to town.

Sorry for the pain involved and thanks for the tip. That stuff will be in my first aid kit as soon as I can find some.

I think a lot of people over use Neosporin et al when more good would follow from keeping things clean and dry.

Hard to take with you mobile, but Fresh Raw Aloe Vera sap will amaze you. smile Every Family in our Clan now keeps an Aloe Vera plant going just for things like this. The ability to almost completely remove any scarring is truly incredible!

Is the clotting powder (ferrous sulfate) used to stop bleeding in animals safe and effective for humans? A big bottle at the farm store is 5 bucks which is a hell of a lot cheaper than quick clot.

Hey! This is a Tinfoil Hat Bugout Question! I have been wondering this same thing for quite awhile now...I truly hope this is the case and I am seriously interested also!

Side note...When researching this very issue I came across super glue!

Been using super glue for minor shop cuts etc FOREVER,....it works, and if you get right on it, it works well. Best results are if one can get the stuff onto the cut BEFORE it starts to really bleed. The liquid stuff works best, but have used gel in the past.

Got a split fingernail ?....glue a piece of gauze or two (layered) with Loctite Super Bonder over it, and keep it trimmed as it grows out.

If this FUBAR had not clotted up on it's own, I certainly would have used Vet grade blood stopper, but MAN does that stuff ever HURT.

Can't see Aloe Vera doing what this stuff is doing, scrapes and burns ?....absolutely,not so hot on using it on anything deeper.

You would truly be surprised my Friend...I have personally witnessed it for many years now. It is now the first "Go To" with the Grandkids and ourselves. Especially for Burns, even Sunburn! It seals the wound fast and has natural antibiotic agents and is the best thing for quick healing and scar prevention I have found yet!

In my line of work I damage myself just about everyday. You really should give it a test run my Friend...I promise you will NOT be sorry! smile

Started using aloe Vera at least 40 years ago,....no surprises on this end.

Question,....HOW do you sterilize Aloe Vera, before applying to an open wound ?

If I'm not mistaken, mine grow in DIRT.

Healing properties ? Si.

Antisepic Properties ? Lo siento, no tiene.

Pretty impressive lineup,....as far as I can see the chemistry is basically all about "taming" bleach.

Wash wound well...split a pre-washed Aloe Vera leaf long ways with a clean instrument and apply. It naturally has both antiseptic and antibiotic qualities. I don't know about your DIRT Greg but mine is still sterile from last Summer's intense heat. smile

That's one thing about the Desert... smile
