Management of minor injuries

Effective management of minor injuries begins with immediate, correct action. For cuts, prioritize cleaning and disinfection, then cover with a sterile bandage. For sprains or strains, remember R.I.C.E: Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. Avoid popping blisters; they act as a protective layer against infections. Always be cautious of signs of infection like increased redness, swelling, pus, or if the pain worsens. For any injury, if symptoms persist or seem unusual, seek medical attention. Staying informed and acting promptly can accelerate recovery and reduce the risk of complications.
