If it is really bad, you might want to get it stitched on to make sure it heals right.


They sell large bandaids at the store, they're patch-sized. You might consider using one of those. Use Neosporin before putting the bandaid on, it helps with healing.
Reply:well, aside from the normal answers like clean it so it won't get infected, and when you're resting, let it get air so it won't collect bacteria....





See if you can locate some moleskin. Use it when you're moving around... You can find it at any outdoors place. A ski shop may have it, or ERI or hunting goods. Cabela's?





Good luck.
