How big of a wound should there be in order to use antiseptics?!


Question: How big of a wound should there be in order to use antiseptics? or is there no proper size? I just treated a young child that fell off his bike and he had a few small rashes and a small cut probably about 1 cm. I used antiseptics and wiped his cut and rashes. Was this right? How big or deep of a cut or rash should it be in order for me to use antiseptics?

That is fine it just helps clean and disinfect! What a very sweet and kind thing for you to do! But I would expect nothing less from a magician!

Any size wound needs to have it to kill germs. Minor cuts and scrapes can have peroxide on them and a triple antibiotic ointment like Neosporin.
