What can I apply to heal and determine the degree?

To heal a wound, you should first rinse it under cold water for at least 5 to 10 minutes. Then clean it with a mild, unscented soap and rinse well. It is a good idea to visit a pharmacy for a professional evaluation of the wound. In the meantime, you can apply an antibiotic ointment like Polysporin. If you have diabetes or a weakened immune system, it is important to seek medical evaluation.
