All about Cuts and Grazes
A cut or graze is an injury to the skin. A small cut should be cleaned gently with clean water and covered with a plaster or bandage. Cleaning the wound removes dirt and reduces the risk of infection.
Your skin begins to heal a cut within minutes, as blood forms a clot to stop the bleeding. Tell an adult if the cut is deep, keeps bleeding, has something stuck in it or looks red, swollen or infected.
