Wash your hands before you change the dressing. Remove the bandage in the direction of your hair growth so you do not damage the skin. If you notice the scab is stuck to the bandage, soak the bandage with a mixture of 1 teaspoon (4.9ml) of salt in 1 gallon (3.8l) of water, or use sterile water if you have it on hand. After the bandage has soaked for a few minutes, gently remove it. If the scab is still stuck to the bandage, soak it again until it comes loose. Do not tug or pull on it, as this can damage the wound and make it bleed again. Make sure you put antibiotic ointment or petroleum jelly on the wound before you bandage it to keep it moist and speed up healing. You can also apply the ointment or jelly to the gauze before placing it over the wound. The open wound may feel itchy or irritated as it starts to heal, especially once it starts to scab. Resist the urge to pick, scratch, or rub at the open wound, as this will slow down healing. Wear thick clothing and keep the wound covered so you are not tempted to touch it. You can also apply ointment to the wound, which can keep the skin moist and prevent it from itching as it heals. Hydrogen peroxide, rubbing alcohol, and iodine are caustic and can burn your tissues, damaging your skin further and causing scarring. Antibiotic ointment and petroleum jelly are more than enough to keep the wound sterile and clean. Do not expose the open wound to air, as this will slow down healing and can lead to scarring. Keep the wound bandaged at all times, especially if you are going outside and exposing your skin to the sun. The only time you can take off the bandage is in the shower or bath, as the moisture is good for the wound. Once the wound has healed over with new skin, you can expose it to the air. Continue to bandage it for protection in situations where it might reopen, such as sporting events.

A basic nutcracker requires nothing more than hard alcohol and fruit juice. Although this recipe calls for Hawaiian Punch, vodka, and rum, you can substitute in juice or other alcohols if you prefer. Mix the vodka, rum, and water in a clear plastic single-serve juice bottle. Add enough Hawaiian Punch to fill the remainder of the bottle. For a stronger drink, increase the amount of vodka, rum, and water in equal increments. Instead of Hawaiian Punch, you can substitute other juices, such as apple, peach, or any other juice or fruit-flavored beverage. Replace the lid on the juice bottle and shake to mix the ingredients. Serve cold in the juice bottle.
