So as you guys will remember, I came off my bike last week on the A40

Unfortunately the wounds on my elbow and knee are not looking so great,me knee is a bit funny looking, but the elbow has a hole in the center and is yellow :(

I'm not sure what the next step is.

Go to docs n get biotics? :nenau

Ive got pictures if anyone is interested :augie

Sounds like Ebola, better cut your arms and legs off before it spreads.
Go on then, lets have a deek at your pictures ;)

Looks like a nice old puss filled scab, had worse when we were kids and fell off our push bikes ;)

Hmm, looks like I might have to do something.. Was hoping tcp and hibiscrub would be enough to keep it clean :o

Depends on your own immune system Alex, nothing there that I have not seen dozens of times, for me I would be extracting the gravel that is trapped in there, and flush it out with a syringe of salt water, all sorted, if you cannot be digging it out yourself then doctor or A & E I am afraid, Rick
