Preview thumbnail for Motorcycle road rash after 2 weeks. This pic was taken after a shower. Is it healing correctly? I used vasline on it & antiseptic povidone iod betadona but it really hurts and burns. Changing the dressing everyday after a shower. Thanks ❤️ image

12 hours after incision and drainage, doc said wound looked like it had already drained on its own last night, i just had a lot of swelling. 1/4 inch incision less than 1/4 inch deep, no more drainage, do I really need a dressing? Can I just cover with a bandaid?
