Urgent : Please see an urgent care center for wound management. Have you had your tetanus vaccination?. You will most likely need a suture or steri strips depending on the depth and size of the wound. Keep the area clean and dry until seen. It is important to see the center today, since the wound is not closing spontaneously.
