Cuts **could be triggering**
 
I cut my legs last night but went a big crazy

They're not deep just like sratches but deep enough to bleed

i've clean it all up and everything i was just wondering if there was anything i could used to help the scars fade? i am scared because if i look at them in the future they might tempt me to do it again

If you cn apply a layer of anti bacterial cream to them and then put some non stick gauze over the top. Use some bandaging such as tubi grip to hold the in place. Change the dressing about twice a day applying more cream each time. This shouls help the wounds heal faster and so they should not scar as bad. It should also prevent you from looking at them all the time whilsthere healing and hopefully you wont be triggered.

Once they are healed there are prodcts which can be used to help them fade such as coco butter and bio oil.

Take care
