About a week ago I got a cut on my hand right? Well yesterday it was swollen, yellow and oozing something really gross. So I asked my science teacher if it was infected. He said that it didn't look good and that I should get it checked out. I went to my math teacher who is also a science teacher and she said that it was and that the band-aid was on too tight. She told me to wash it with soap and hot water and to let the air get to it. I did so and when I got home I put some rubbing alcohol on it and if it bubbles then it is infected. Well it bubbled so I have to keep putting it on till it is better. I hate have infected cuts. I really do need to start taking better care of them lol
