Modern scientific research versus conventional wisdom
According to traditional wisdom handed down through the ages, it's best to leave wounds open so that they can 'breathe' and 'heal naturally'. Scientific research, however, has demonstrated the opposite: covering up wounds and using proper wound care procedures is essential. Dirt and bacteria can easily enter into the body through broken skin, which can lead to infection. When infections spread to other parts of the body, it can cause serious health issues.
The pain associated with infections can delay the healing process and become a source of irritation. An infection may require antibiotics if it becomes serious - so if you feel like your wound is infected, do not wait and see your doctor immediately.
