How to wrap tight a cut finger a child is picking on?

  • He's a special needs child and we've put band aids more than once, we tried holding his finger and have tried wrapping his hand with a piece of clean cloth and when that didn't work we wrapped only his finger with gauze but he keeps trying to take it off until he eventually does. Then he goes back to picking at his cut, he's no longer bleeding but I'm worry it my get infected.

  • Answer:

    It's a really hard one because no matter what you put on it he is going to be disturbed by it. The only options I could suggest is distraction for a while until he hopefully forgets, such as watching a film while the bandage is slowly and gently reapplied. Or using a sock over his hand. I really hope you get this sorted to ensure his wound heals correctly. Good luck! X

Make sure you put some antiseptic on it, which I am sure you must be doing. What you could do is buy some cartoon band aids which children like to have on their fingers. Check with your local drug store/chemist. I used to get Disney ones for my child.
