Since streets aren't known for their cleanliness, and those scrapes look pretty deep, a visit to the docs wouldn't hurt. If nothing else, it will put your mind at ease and you won't be imagining all sorts of worst case scenarios!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9000427.post-20793095190069223532008-07-20T22:01:00.000-03:002008-07-20T22:01:00.000-03:00Go to the doctor, cherie.

Better than cutting a vacation short. I won't be the sort of jerky person who throws a worst-case-scenario horror story at you, but I do have one if you want it ;)jodihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08041013686914120756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9000427.post-1206870763479955182008-07-19T11:19:00.000-03:002008-07-19T11:19:00.000-03:00R.I.C.E - Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation.

I would NOT use Neosporin -instead, use a triple antibiotic ointment. Lots of folks are having reactions to Neosporin. Hope you feel better soon! P.S.
