Problem: Article: Gently washed the newly exposed skin with warm water and antibacterial soap. Pat dry with a clean, soft towel when done. Gently lather the area with antibacterial soap and warm water for 30 to 40 seconds. Rinse the soap away, then clean the area again for another 30 to 40 seconds in the same manner. Patting the area dry, rather than scrubbing it, prevents the wound from reopening. The physician, nurse, or other healthcare professional in charge of your treatment may have specific instructions regarding the proper care of your wound once the Steri-Strips are off. It is recommended that you check with your healthcare provider for any necessary continuation of care. If there are no special requirements, you should care for the wound simply by washing it gently and letting it dry completely before covering it with anything (bandages, clothing, etc.). Avoid exposing the wound to sunlight since excess sun can irritate the area and cause the scar to turn red. Depending on your circumstances and the speed at which your wound is healing, your physician or nurse may recommend that you apply more Steri-Strips or another type of bandage over the area for a few more days. Wounds that have been closed with strips and then left open can often become dry. Ask your doctor about a viable cream to apply to keep the area moist and reduce scarring. Creams with silica in them or Vitamin K have been shown to help reduce scarring.
Summary: Wash the area with antibacterial soap. Talk to your doctor about proper wound care.

Problem: Article: When you're just beginning, try to be sneaky in a small, barely-noticeable way. If you're in a small space, for instance, if you're riding in a car, you can concentrate on improving your sneakiness without having to take your surroundings into account. Try this sneaking exercise: While sitting in the passenger seat, see if there are any coins in the cup holder. Slowly but surely, (over the course of the car ride) take the coins out one at a time. Be sure the driver is not watching you, and try not to make any noise. Later, try to place all the coins back in the cup holder. This exercise will improve your hand steadiness, your ability to move silently, and your ability to read the body language of people you're sneaking on! When you're confident being sneaky in small, controlled environments, it's time to practice sneaking in larger, more active environments. Every additional person in your surroundings is a variable you'll have to account for - being able to account for other peoples' position and line of vision even when you aren't looking at them using clues like the sound of footsteps, etc. is a vital sneaking skill. Try this exercise: at a social event, watch someone who has a drink out of the corner of your eye. Wait until their back is turned, and then move the drink to another room. After you have moved the drink, go back and watch them as they try to remember where they put it. Make sure you keep a straight face - don't give away that you had something to do with it. This exercise improves your ability to keep inconspicuous in crowded areas as well as your ability to control your emotions in the face of someone you've duped. For a good test of your ability to move silently, stay awake late at night and try to move around the house silently when everyone's asleep - pick a point in your house to sneak to, then sneak back to your room, going through as many rooms as possible. In the stillness of the night, you'll be able to hear even smallest movements. You want to be able to craft lies, excuses, and personal information on the fly to talk your way past troublesome folks who might interfere with your sneaking mission. Practice your ability to lie and charm people - often, it's just as important as your ability to move without being seen or heard. Some people have a visceral negative reaction when they tell a lie that is detectable by others. To start getting over this, begin by telling inconsequential, harmless lies. When someone asks for the time, tell them it's one minute later than it is. You'll eventually work through your reluctance and, if you gradually scale up your lies, soon you'll be able to tell convincingly "real," consequential lies. If you're not socially squeamish, try talking your way into a members-only gym or country club as a good test of your social sneaking abilities. Craft a good excuse beforehand - maybe you left your wallet in the locker room, or maybe your friends are inside waiting for you but they can't let you in because they're in the pool away from their phones!
Summary: Practice basic sneaking skills. Expand your sneaking practice. Keep your social abilities sharp.

Problem: Article: Many sites host videos but keep in mind that all of them take a percentage of what you make. Therefore, it's a good idea to shop around and find the best deal overall. Don't be fooled by the phrase "make up to X amount," as that just tells you what the top earners are making. Instead, look at what percentage they take from your overall tips. It's also smart to look at reviews of each site. You may find that some sites are considered better because they offer better traffic or less restrictive rules. Sites can take anywhere from 20% to 70% of the profits. Before deciding on a site, take a look at how its tipping system works. Many sites work on a token system, where customers buy tokens and then spend them on live webcam videos like yours. However, typically these systems aren't 1-to-1 with any currency, meaning 1 token doesn't equal $1 USD or whatever currency you're using. It's a good idea to figure out the tipping system so you know what you're making when the tokens roll in. You can start out with just your computer or phone's camera and basic home lighting. However, the better quality you have, the more likely you are to draw customers. Think about your background and what you want your customers to see when you go live. For instance, if you want to set a romantic mood, try softly lighting up your face and then having candles in the background. A screen name can help set your brand. For instance, choose a fun and cutesy nickname if that's how you plan to act on camera. If you're more into music or art, you may want to focus on that. In the end, though, the most important thing is it must be unique. You may not want to use your real first name when setting up a screen name. While webcamming is generally safe, using any real information can give bad guys tips on how to find you offline and things like blackmailing and doxing can happen if you're not careful. If you're going to be on the internet, you must come to terms with the fact that people you know may see you. However, to make it easier on you, some sites allow you to block access from certain countries, so you're less likely to be seen by someone you know. That way, you can block access to the state you live in or the country. Many customers are looking for particular things. You can use physical descriptions, such as "curvy," "thick," and/or "busty." You can also add words that describe what you'd like to do on your channel, such as "flirting," "playing music," and/or "eating." Try to come up with a brand and stick with it. For instance, maybe you want to focus on playing artsy music most of the time with a little bit of sexual fantasy on the side. Focus on words that would draw users to your channel, such as "guitar," "acoustic," or "playing naked." While tips are the main way you'll make money, you can also be rewarded in other ways, such as when customers buy items off your wishlist and send them to you. You can put anything you want on your wishlist, set it to public, and then post it on your profile. Make sure to keep your address private when creating the list. Also, it's a good idea to set up a PO box to help keep your own address anonymous.
