More information coming soon.

What is a graze?

● Superficial injury where the top layer of skin is torn or scraped off
● Commonly caused by sliding falls
● Road dirt and gravel can become embedded in the wound and can cause infection if not cleaned or removed properly
● Grazes can be quite painful

Graze treatment

● Stop the bleeding by elevating the limb and applying local pressure to the area
● Clean the wound of foreign bodies, dirt & debris
● Do NOT remove large objects (e.g large pieces of glass, as this may cause further damage and more bleeding
● Refer the customer to a doctor for treatment
● Use an antiseptic if necessary

Always seek medical advice if the graze:
● Won't stop bleeding
● Cannot be cleaned properly or if there are particles that cannot be removed
● Causes loss of function
● Becomes infected

See your doctor for treatment or if you have any underlying medical conditions.
