I was always taught to let the wound dry out. After getting a bad cut on my hand over Thanksgiving, I did some research on wound care to prevent scaring and all the stuff I've been finding says to keep it moist and covered. It's healing a lot faster and none of the discomfort you get from a scab. I'll update if there's any scarring.
@@goodking9799 well not gonna lie, I kept it moist at first and it was extremely itchy. I'm sure it was new cells forming or something along those lines. Eventually tho the itching stopped and it didn't look like the wound was healing any faster and I got a bit concerned. So I allowed it to dry out and a scab could form. Once the scab formed and the itchiness came back I kept it moist again with some Vaseline. It healed really fast right after that and the wound is barely noticeable. I think it did help to keep it moist at first to allow the new cells to grow but I still think it needs to "breathe", hard to explain lol.
@@sdbeagle10: After washing and cleaning, Vaseline is useful for a moist covering with a gauze pad, and a secure wrap is good. It needs to *improve* first, then "breathe."
Excellent, easy-to-understand explanation of wound healing. I used this method to treat deep road rash on my husband's shoulder. It took a long time to heal but the results are much better than if we had allowed it to scab over.
If your cells were a certain very rare species of Asian Arowana then you'd be a multi . With how many cells people have, and how valuable some of those fish are, if you could get $300,000 USD (One of the most expensive Asian Arowana ever sold) per cell you'd be set for like the heat death of the universe at a solid 2.172e+20 $2,172,000,000,000,000,000 USD. I believe that's about 200 million million million dollars. So you'd be pretty happy probably... I don't even know how someone could spend that much money in one, much less, multiple lifetimes.
This is very interesting and makes me wanna injure myself and see the healing process through covered wound, cause ive been letting my wounds dry up since i was a kid
I was told by a nurse to cover it up during the day to prevent infection and to help with the healing process. But to uncover it at nights to let it get some air to also help the body speed up the healing process. My daughter fell on some cement and tore a huge chunk of 2 layers from her skin on her foot. Very big and painful looking wound. She can barely walk at times. She walks better when it’s wrapped up. Ive had triple antibiotics on it every day with gauze and a wrap during the day, but at nights we let it air dry. Im questioning whether the air drying is necessary or not bc of blankets going over it and stuff.
I had a fall and wounded myself for the first time in over a decade. It was a deep gash on my knee and I had to relearn the healing process. Through some research and trial and error this is what seemed to have worked best. 1. Clean the open wound thoroughly with water. Yes this hurts, but it’s vital. 2. Cover the cleaned wound with a wound dressing, especially overnight to avoid bleeding/weeping onto your bed sheets. This dressing makes the wound moist and rapidly speeds up the healing process. 3. After a few nights of sleeping with the dressing, I noticed the wound was repaired to the point where it was almost level with the outmost skin. It was at this point that I started airing out the wound during the day to form a scab. CAUTION: at the very beginning, I wasn’t washing the wound because I didn’t want to mess up the scab. It turns out the scab was infected (dark brown and red). I fixed this by sitting in a hot shower for 20 minutes until the scab was moist and then scrubbing it half off with a loofah and soap. This restarted the healing process. From that point I continued to dress the wound every night and gently washing it in the shower daily.
I just let the scab grow and peel it when its thick with a sticky liquid below it. I love the smell of scabs and I have a collection of them. Sometimes I purposely injure myself so i can have scabs. :)
I once got a paper cut on my finger. I normally would just let it heal on its own but I decided to do an experiment and use a band aid with anti bacterial cream. Without the cream and band aid it took 5-7 days for the wound to heal where as without them it took about a month. I think the reasoning behind it is that the skin was moist the whole time it was covered and was able to heal quickly.
I would say that it depends on the severity and depth of the wound. A scab keeps a wound from constantly weeping fluid and blood which can make a royal mess.
I am still healing from a nasty dog bite wound on my little finger. I am so thankful to have the hydrocel bandaids that are available now for open cuts. They keep the wound moist yet dry. You can see the wound healing yet no scab forms. I went to urgent care and they suggested antibiotics in case of infection which are common in my situation. I watched my finger for more swelling and just kept the bandaids on.you can keep the bandaid on for five days before changing it. I tried the air method for one day and my finger just did not heal and started to throb again. I have a medical background. I hope anyone viewing this video takes the information seriously as it is true. With a small cut you may getaway with no bandaid. Yet you will find that using this bandaid will speed your healing and limit scarring.
I’m wearing the Band-Aid 🩹 brand Hydro seal Band-Aids 🩹 right now on my blisters on my 2 blisters on my left big toe and on my 1st blister on my 2nd toe next to the big toe on my left foot 🦶
It is just a band-aid ad. Once i got scab and the wound was fine. Then i removed it and put band-aid on and it started hurting like hell. Then again removed band-aid. After few hours scab formed again and pain gone
Akshay Mathapati when you removed the scab it your skin was probably healing and raw flesh was there. Band aids do have something like hand sanitizer on the pads so that’s why it probably burned. Not a good idea to let airborne bacteria and other small particles inside you
Maybe, but the hypersensitivity on my most recent wound meant the bandage rubbing against it was actively unpleasant. I let it scab up, and that hard shell guarded the exposed nerves much more so the sensitivity decreased rapidly.
God is great god and his creation his ideas his nature how he made us everything in our how he heals every damages both mental n physical incredible love you god thankyou for giving us this life this body and everything we need n want 🤗
Nonsense I have healed many wounds with medical white cotton, it accumulates the blood and the lymphe wound healing solution and the results are best. This Doctor should apply gauze on himself and his family members next time he/ they get heavily injured. And bear the pain from Gauze. One of the many Misconceptions of medicines. Nothing, NOTHING is better than COTTON! ❤❤
you may use bandaids or gauze. whatever you prefer always clean the wound everyday. dont be filthy. i always have my 1st aid kit ready when we go cycling / bikepacking
For the same reason the body over activates an immune response to an infection or traumatic situation. It is an imperfect system that has adapted to work but its not ideal. Just like how some people are born with sickle cell and other issues.
steveXracer so the body doesn’t clot your blood and you bleed to your death form the smallest cut? And if a scab is not composed of dried blood and dead skin cells?
Interesting.. I got a blister recently and i thought putting band aid was slowing the recovery (also... I know I shouldn't touch it but its too late now 😅)
Sounds reasonable, but I am a little skeptical considering this video promoting the use of band-aids is made by a company that profits from the sale of band-aids.
The scab is the body's natural response to heal wounds and cuts. That's how we've been healing our wounds since millions of years. These advertisements are just to make money and fool people. You don't tear the scab .. it'll fall off once the healing is done completely.
@@AdarshRajCR7 that's not true lol. My ex fell and scraped half of her face and she kept her scraped face moist by applying vaseline to avoid the scabs... surprisingly it healed much faster and there were no scar. Not one scar was visible.
Doesn’t make sense to disparage a natural body process like that. This information is partly true but only when applied to certain type of wound. A deep wound should not be allowed to scab because it will dry out completely down to the most subcutaneous level of the skin. However a surface wound, scratch or brush burn should be allowed to scab to keep it protected while the body naturally heals itself. Just apply cocoa butter to keep it from scarring. Bandaids are a bad choice in some instances. They do keep the wound moist but because we have habits of keeping it on for far far too long, it invites infection. If it is that bad, use A&D and keep it open and clean it a lot. If it’s just a boo-boo, please just run it under water, hold a sterile pad to it for ten minutes and once the bleeding stops leave it alone.
earth to toddler bitch Omg sameeee but I’m sure it doesn’t make the cells alive again it just makes dead and moist cells. Or does it? I have no idea!!!
I am not an expert but I have a biology degree and I teach anatomy. I am almost certain that cells do not move in any way like what you showed. They do not bounce. They do not float in ooze. That is absurd
I think you are right. I doubt tissue granulation looks anything like this. The animation choice is probably just a visually simple way to make the point.
I've got a massive road rash gash on my elbow and have been trying to research how to make this thing heal faster and the info is all over the place. I clearly understand the biases involved in taking healing advice from a bandage-making company, but I don't understand how there is not hard evidence from peer reviewed studies showing which method is best in this day and age.
there's no reference to studies? the claims I've seen is that scars are likely to be more visible with bandages, this video seems to confirm this idea as the cells growing into the scab would be influenced by the shape of the wound more than those forced to go around it. me thinks they do protest too much
Blessings in an abundance of the faith. I salute you. 😘🙏Grace and peace be unto you and to this place. God bless you. 🕯️Thank you. Will you believe and receive Jesus Christ as your lord and personal saviour??? I do. 🤍
Idk if this is a troll or not, but it's a comapany's job to promote and sell their prodcuts and to increase the quality and effectiveness of the product. Just sharing, man.
Don't take everything your told at face value. Even this video is only telling you about the pros of bandaids and the cons of letting it air out. There are pros and cons tho both. One thing I would suggest you do no matter what method you choose, is to use an antiseptic cream and stay up to date with the jab.
Minor cuts and wounds, you don't need a bandage. Clean it, let it dry out. For deeper wounds, you should bandage it up to keep infections down, then when it starts to heal, you don't need a bandage anymore. Nature created a bandage for us, scabs. Why not use it.
Except that gauze does not do what they say needs to be done. There are bandages that do what they say, but they are rather expensive compared to the typical bandaid, but once they are put on you do not need to change them daily or several times a day. You just leave them on until they start to pill off by themselves. I had some skin that got peeled off my arm a couple of inches. Normally that skin would have died and needed to be removed. But once I got the bleeding stopped I put one of those hydrocolliod bandages on. About three weeks later when it really started to come off I went ahead and removed it and all of that pilled skin had reattached itself and was well on its way to being healed. I cleaned it up and put another of those bandages on and then three weeks later it was completely healed up without even the hint of a scare. Except for a little whiteish area where the metal edge first dug into my skin, you would never be able to tell it ever happened.
That being said, even as good as it worked, a regular bandaid with some petroleum jelly covering the wound would probably do as well but need to be replaced at least daily or when you bath since they are not water proof.
My mom was convinced that the old way was better, she was so wrong because drying out the wound and allowing a scab to set it in is a highway to infection and severe pain.
I swear, I'm no nurse or medical professional wanna b. Just a human who had a nasty puncture wound. So I'm gonna just say what got me to the urgent care, and what I wish I knew before the puncture. Distilled water, or fresh bottled water to flush wound asap. In first aid kit. Next Kotex pads, or pampers diapers, yep your hearing me right. I tried gauze and soap and water for first aid, that was misery pure and simple. The gauze stuck to the wound when it got full of blood, when I changed the gauze and statistics they 're opened the wound. After two days of gauze and stereo strips urgent care gave me along with a needed anti biotic. I got sick of 're opening the wound and did this, poured fresh distilled water on the wound and blotted it dry with a kite pad. The kotex dried the wound and didn't stick to the healing tissue. I live in humidity so at night I gently laid the kotex pad on the wound to sleep up sweat. And nothing from the kotex pad stuck to my wound or hindered my human healing mechanisms. Gauze pads and the plastic adhesives on band aids kept sticking to the scab, and 're opening the wound at dressing changes. So my point, band aid meets kotex for pads to let a wound resperate and not stick to the wound or wound margin. Change dressing every four hours till the scab forms.
It's to prevent dirt in the air from going inside the wound. Surely, any human would NEVER want any infections caused by a wound. Some simple scratches that is left untreated can result of a part to be amputated.

It's not always gonna be a nightmare if you can moisturize the bandaid's pad before peeling if off.
Right tho

@Pasta that’s true. It’ll hurt regardless for guys with hairy legs
@Pasta I fold a tiny part (3mm) of one end of the bandaid so it doesn’t stick to the skin. It makes it easier to quickly pull off

Use tissue before that wash using anti bacterial soap
Can you use this on eczema?
So why does the body make a scab then? If it isn't ideal?
For the same reason the body over activates an immune response to an infection or traumatic situation. It is an imperfect system that has adapted to work but its not ideal. Just like how some people are born with sickle cell and other issues.
probably because before clean bandages were a thing, it was better to have a scab than just have our body bleed out loads over a small cut.
Jimbok21 it’s called blood clotting and a scab is composed of dried blood and dead skin cells

thats a reason why my wounds wont heal properly lol good thing gonna covered by band-aid
It helps to minimize scar to form...
Random high thought: I wonder what it looks like to heal under a scab?
Thank you RUclips 😂

2 years
So can I pick my scabs
What is the best dressing or ointment to create a moist wound environment?
Petroleum jelly any kind of bandage will work
So, is it bad to have scrabs?
It's natural, so it isn't. Scabs happen with or without bandages anyways, letting it dry slowly is better thats why the video said to cover it
bandidas make my fingers go numb
Interesting.. I got a blister recently and i thought putting band aid was slowing the recovery (also... I know I shouldn't touch it but its too late now 😅)

About three weeks later when it really started to come off I went ahead and removed it and all of that pilled skin had reattached itself and was well on its way to being healed. I cleaned it up and put another of those bandages on and then three weeks later it was completely healed up without even the hint of a scare. Except for a little whiteish area where the metal edge first dug into my skin, you would never be able to tell it ever happened.
That being said, even as good as it worked, a regular bandaid with some petroleum jelly covering the wound would probably do as well but need to be replaced at least daily or when you bath since they are not water proof.
Okkk🙂👍
My mom was convinced that the old way was better, she was so wrong because drying out the wound and allowing a scab to set it in is a highway to infection and severe pain.
I’d rather take the detour
filipino humans is having too much wound
How the hell did humans survive for hundreds of thousands of years without a band aid?
They didn't
@@tommyharris5817 that’s kinda true, many many people died of gang green and sepsis bc of infection.
They used pages from the Sears Catalog for both wounds and wiping.
I swear, I'm no nurse or medical professional wanna b. Just a human who had a nasty puncture wound. So I'm gonna just say what got me to the urgent care, and what I wish I knew before the puncture. Distilled water, or fresh bottled water to flush wound asap. In first aid kit. Next Kotex pads, or pampers diapers, yep your hearing me right. I tried gauze and soap and water for first aid, that was misery pure and simple. The gauze stuck to the wound when it got full of blood, when I changed the gauze and statistics they 're opened the wound. After two days of gauze and stereo strips urgent care gave me along with a needed anti biotic. I got sick of 're opening the wound and did this, poured fresh distilled water on the wound and blotted it dry with a kite pad. The kotex dried the wound and didn't stick to the healing tissue. I live in humidity so at night I gently laid the kotex pad on the wound to sleep up sweat. And nothing from the kotex pad stuck to my wound or hindered my human healing mechanisms. Gauze pads and the plastic adhesives on band aids kept sticking to the scab, and 're opening the wound at dressing changes. So my point, band aid meets kotex for pads to let a wound resperate and not stick to the wound or wound margin. Change dressing every four hours till the scab forms.
Why is the scab in this video actually the most disgusting thing I’ve ever seen
Yeeeeahh right, this is exactly what big bandage wants you to think 🙄
(Satire)
Am I a fish??
I guess, mom, grandma, and uncle bill were wrong
Ok cool so I can stop picking at my scabs like a psychotic 6 year old 😅😅😅😪
Why do thr 1:11 part look like cereal nasty
What kind of cereal are you eating, bud
Ofcourse band-aid would spread this type of misinformation.
Moist healing is faster, look at all the research papers. Doesn’t matter what you use, bandage or non stick pads. Just have them covered
This scared me.. this is how you get crates on your face after having a pimple
Church
sure it makes it better buuut not using bandades trains ur body to be more responsive when u have a wound instead of making it dependant on bandaids
It's to prevent dirt in the air from going inside the wound.
Surely, any human would NEVER want any infections caused by a wound.
Some simple scratches that is left untreated can result of a part to be amputated.
