Abrasion on Elbow

This picture shows a shallow scrape on the left elbow.

First Aid Care Advice for Minor Scrape:

  • Apply direct pressure for 10 minutes to stop any bleeding.
  • Wash the area with soap and water.
  • Gently scrub out any dirt with a washcloth.
  • Apply an antibiotic ointment, covered by an adhesive bandage or dressing. Change daily.
  • Another option is to use a Liquid Skin Bandage that only needs to be applied once. Avoid ointments with this.
