Wounds are injuries that break the skin, as if a tear or laceration has opened up on the surface of the body. They can be very minor or something more serious. The word "wound" has different usages, anything from a graze to a surgical wound. Let's have a look at what they're all about.

We all know that surgical wounds are no joke: that's exactly why you need to know what the rules and solutions are to ensure a quick healing process. First of all, keep the area where you'll be spending most of your time spotless: hygiene is the golden rule. As for treating your wound, you'll need a disinfectant to protect it from bacteria that could cause infection. And be careful not to use any toxic products!

Tetanus is caused by the spores of the Clostridium tetani, a bacterium often found in topsoil as well as contaminated syringes, which gets into the body through a wound. Tetanus often starts with a simple accident, but without vaccination, the consequences can be very serious.
