Don't care anymore

I have a collection of bandaids because I'm always using them. I've never seen another living person put on so many bandaids before. I also have something called "second skin" which work better but expensive, it's around $8 for 6 bandaids, but they're colloidal strips that stick for usually a week. The whole thing sticks over to the wound and as the wound heals and seeps out that fluid, the fluid collects under the bandage turning it white and puffy and when the bandage is "full" you take it off. I like these because you can also custom cut them. But when you've got them on your face and shoulders, it's another one of those things I find myself making excuses about. But they do work better than regular bandaids. I still use both, and admittedly as long as the sores are covered up I tend to leave them alone (often though in search of new flesh). The good thing is when these second skin bandages come off, the wound, while not fully healed, has been softened and relaxed, not tight like when it's air dried. So they're a lot less itchy. The medication in the colloidal ones is also wonderful. Somehow it helps to drain the wound while protecting it and letting it heal on it's own. They use them a lot for burn victims because they're very soothing and cover larger areas. A typical bandage can be around an inch and a half wide by 3 inches long, and the whole thing is medicated, not just a little square in the center. This makes them more effective because I have some that have grown together forming strips of bumpy keloids, so one bandage can cover two bumps fully. Unfortunately my scarring is permanent, raised, bright purple, and can't be camoflauged. On my face I'm scarred and there's only so much bandage on the face time you can use up before it gets weird.
