How to treat a gash on big toe? er cut off flap of skin. wrap tight or loose for air? soak 1xday? bacetracin? none?

Depth matters: Clean well with tap water and a small amount of antibacterial soap. If it is superficial and not contaminated leave the flap as a natural barrier, apply small amount of Bacitracin and loosely bandage. If it is deep or heavily contaminated seek professional help.

In general, these...: Would be my recommendations: 1. Wash the wound with soap and water 2-4 times/day and apply Bacitracin ointment and a bandaid 2. For the first few days to a week, try to keep the injured foot elevated higher than your heart to minimize swelling 3. See a doctor if pain increases, there is an odor, or you have a fever 4. Foot wounds heal slowly, so keep this up till it is nearly healed.

Topical antibiotic: With bandage. Tetanus history should of been reviewed in the er. Ice is good as well. Monitor for signs of infection.
