Comfort of Gauze on Burning Skin

[PlasticFace]

Cutting again (what a surprise). Almost forgot how comforting and warm the feeling of fresh gauze on a wound feels. Of course, the pain is burning, but the wrap holds me all together like a hug. Do you dress your wounds? If yes, whats your favorite products?

I have always loved bandages. It is so comforting knowing I am bleeding. It is like how you described, a hug. I used to know bandage my wounds, but I do now because it feels nice and also prevents infections.

i relapsed a few days ago after a 2-ish month long clean streak and i love the feeling of gauze on cuts too. Although what i do is i wait before wrapping them so that when i have to take the bandage off the dry blood doesn't stick to it. Also it hurts more unwrapped, so making myself wait before dressing it makes it feel even better
as for products, i just use generic drug-store brand gauze and antibacterial ointment to keep the cuts moist and relatively disenfected under the wrapping. the most convenient thing about relapsing around halloween is that if anyone notices white peeking out from under my sleeves and asks me i can just say i'm a mummy or something lolol
