I have a wound that was closed and healing and then I tried to properly clean it and now it's itchy and I should have left it the way it was

true
i'm very grateful i learned to treat wounds properly lol

i remember this one time i elbow-dropped a broken GPU "for the bit", in front of a friend group of 6 people
they all laughed & it went okaey
i had a small bleeding laceration, and this girl emily took out a first aid kit & started treating the wound without asking or saying anything, while all of us kept talking
it made me happy & i cry thinking about it often

update: it's not itchy anymore but now half of my leg hurts I think it's because of my posture

careful with your posture, and try not to cut off blood flow either

in the future, if you have an open bleeding wound, you should let it bleed a little bit, then rinse it with clean cold water for a minute or so
then pat the area dry with clean cotton or paper towel or whatever, and keep doing that until a scab/clot forms
you can apply some sort of topical antibiotic ointment before/after the scab forms, not too much but mostly around the area
some airflow on the scab is good, but use a bandage if it'll get dirty otherwise

also puncture wounds are particularly prone to infection, since the piercing object can leave little bits stuck in the hole, and they can be impossible to rinse out

itching can be a sign of proper healing, it's usually good
but yeah be careful

cute!
When I got hurt I only had a saline solution available and I only got a bandage in the next day. Today I got an antibiotic ointment so I wanted to fix my past error but human bodies don't work like that.

eheheh
that's good you got the ointment, that stuff works well
often contains lidocaine which can reduce pain also
