Infection?
 

Okay, so I cut my arm about a week or so ago, not a problem. However, the cut itself was fine, but I have a tendancy to 're-open' the wound. It's scabbed over (sorry, disgusting detail!) but it's red around the edges and quite warm to the touch...

I don't know if this is normal or not, just wondered if anyone could tell me what's what!

Thank-you!

Is there anything comming out of the wound?
Is there more pain in the wound?
Is there a smell comming from it?
Is there any marks going up your arm? or pain further up your arm?

Nothing comming out of the wound.
If you touch it, it's a little sore.
No smell.
No marks.

It does sound like it might be staring with an infection, although it is hard to tell over the inernet.
I would advise to get it checked over as soon as you can. In the mean time, put plenty of anti bacterial cream on a non stick dressing over the wound and use a tubi grip/ ace wrap to hold it in place.

Will do! Thank-you very much :)
