How do i keep this cut from opening up again?

Natural Healing: The good news is that skin has fantastic blood supply and so healing will occur rapidly. Inflammation (red, hot, tender swelling) is the body increasing the blood flow to the injury to bring healing factors to the area and veins expand to carry bad stuff away. Dressings and ointments are of no value once healed. Avoid further trauma to the area and let nature take it's course.
