Paid $20 co-pay for the doc to say "Yup, you cut it pretty bad" and to have a nurse show me how to rebandage the wound.

If it doesn't stick to the wound tomorrow I'll consider it money well spent.

Telfa non-stick wound pads are teh bomb. :) That and ointment, with lightly-wrapped gauze over that and paper tape to hold it all together. I like to tape the corner of the Telfa pad directly to un-damaged skin to keep it from slipping around.

Corner, hell, I had to tape three or four sides of the pads on my legs to get them to stay put for me once the scrapes healed enough for me to move more than ten feet at a time. The ones on the arms cooperated better.
