Dredge.
After my off yesterday I dressed my grazed hip about 10x10cm having cleaned it. Today in the shower it I took / it came off. So currently slathered in savlon with a dressing over it.
It doesn’t look too great and it’s more uncomfortable than it was pre shower.
I went to the pharmacist who had very little in the way of dressing none of which seemed appropriate.
Second pharmacist also didn’t have much and suggested I should see a wound nurse either at the GP (which seems impossible currently) or Hospital.
I really don’t want to go to the hospital because one it’s quite minor and two I’ll be there forever given how minor, in the scheme of things, it is.
Is there an alternative in SE area that has good stock of dressings ideally open late? Or should I suck up a hospital wait?
