For a minor cut or small bacterial infection, healing can be quick if you keep the area clean and prevent further irritation. First, wash the wound gently with mild soap and water, then apply an antiseptic solution. You can use an antibiotic ointment or cream if advised by your doctor to help it heal faster.
