Holistically Treating Cuts and Wounds

Most of us think we know how to handle the small cuts and wounds life occasionally gifts us. But really, there’s some myth-busting that needs to be done.

First: Wounds don’t need to “breathe.” It’s time to put that notion to rest, folks. 
In reality, leaving wounds uncovered can actually do more harm than good. It’s like leaving the door wide open for sneaky pathogens to waltz right in and wreak havoc.

Bandages also trap heat from the skin, keeping the wound at an ideal temp for killing any pathogens that do sneak in. So, cover your cuts and wounds up with an oil-based topical treatment from your holistic first aid kit and a bandage to create a protective shield.

Secondly: Stop using peroxide to clean your cut or wound every day.

Cleaning wounds frequently is crucial for fast healing, yes, but soap and water should be as crazy as it gets.

Only during the initial cleaning can you swab with peroxide or rubbing alcohol. If you continue to use harsh cleaning options on the tender, newly-formed skin cells, you’ll regret it.
