Wound Care & Applications

SportsmanDr treats Burns, Cuts, Scrapes, Bugbites and many other topical ailments you may experience out in the field.  SportsmanDr attacks wounds on 3 different fronts.

  1. Stops Pain and Itching!
  2. Kills bacteria that can cause infection!
  3. Speeds up healing!

Immediate treatment of any wound is extremely important to lessen the chance of infection and scarring. It was once believed that keeping a wound uncovered, allowing it to get air, caused the wound to heal faster. Many studies since then have shown this is simply not the case. By allowing a wound to remain uncovered it gives it an increased chance of being exposed to bacteria and thus causing infection. Also when you allow a wound to scab over which comes from leaving it exposed. You are now at greater risk of leaving a visible scar behind.

Burns

1st and 2nd Degree Burns – This is when the 1 or 2 top layers of skin have been affected.

  1. Rinse in cool water (Not Cold) for 10 to 15 minutes. You can also immerse or soak the affected burn area in a bowl of cool water. Use a compress if water is not available.
