Accidents happen. When they do, and they don’t cause you serious injury, it’s important to know what you should do to protect yourself from further injury and to heal properly. Here are some basic first-aid tips to help keep you safe and healthy. *Minor cuts and scrapes: make sure the area is clean and dress with gauze or a Band-Aid as needed. *Minor burns: run it under cool (not cold!) water. If a blister forms, don’t pop it! Dress with a loose gauze. *Sprains: Wrap with an ace bandage, elevate, and ice. In all of these situations, seek medical attention. Stay safe out there!
