steri strips for wounds

Do you remember that one time when you were playing outside, and it cut or some other scrape something? The best part of grass ankle is — it happens to the best who are at their conscious best too! If you get the cut should be washed with soap and water immediately. This helps growth of white blood cells that remove dirt and germs from the wound. Splinting to immobilize the area, and perhaps some sutures or a bandage if it's deep enough that you're worried about contamination. This is all well and good until you have a cut that's too big or deep to be bandaged by your standard little cloth strip. Thats where Steri Strips can truly make a difference!

Steri Strips are a special type of bandage that help to hold a wound closed until it has the chance to heal. The bands should be thin and sticky, almost tape-like that you could use in an arts-and-crafts project. You can use these on open cuts, where a doctor made an incision in your body parts and even if something sharp is accedentally stepped. Such as nail or broken glass!

The Power of Steri Strips

Then how exactly do Steri Strips work? If you get a wound or scar, your skin will not naturally close. Sometimes, it needs a little nudge to be able do that. Steri Strips keep the cut edges together for better skin healing. The Steri Strips will fall off on their own once the cut has healed more to a point where it is no longer painful.

Keep in mind that Steri Strips aren't right for all types of cuts. You should see a doctor right away if your cut is very deep or it's bleeding a lot. Better safe than sorry, as they say! Steri Strips are ideal for less deep and not overly large cuts. If you are ever worried about a cut, make sure to ask an adult.
