Bathroom fall
I had a not so serious fall in the bathroom this morning where by I got a small cut on my scalp. I may have banged my head on the door handle. Some bleeding was stopped immediately by applying turmeric and sugar. I took my tetanus injection as a precautionary measure. No pain. Wound getting dry.
I have betadine gargle with me. Can I apply that on the wound ?
