ahaaaa....this would explain why the damage on my fingers used to take longer to heal during a certain period of time. you see, i have a nervous habit of picking at the skin of my fingers till they bleed, and my mom got fed up with it but sadly has no medical knowledge whatsoever. so what did she do? DIY HEALING.
this involved having me stick my hands in a tub of hydrogen peroxide for at least fifteen minutes per day. it was awful. it only stopped once she noticed it wasn't doing anything and actually harming me because a lot of the wounds on my fingers were open so it hurt, badly.
i haven't really tried to write medical care seriously yet, but thanks for the psa, because lord only knows more people would suffer like i did without it.
