Wound by a mirror

2023-10-21 16:28:26
It's been already 2 days that I got a cut from mirror which peeled off my skin.It was bleeding but it stopped after some time.I took all the safety measures at home. My questions are Can I use betadine regularly on the wound and cover it with band aid ? How do I know my wound is infected? Should I consult a doctor? Is betadine harmful? What should I use for my wound and how do I treat it at home?
