Is It To Be Concerned If There Is Scraps In Hands Due To A Fall?
Hi, I recently fell on the ground outside. A kind young man who drove by me stopped his car to help me. He picked up my bags for me and handed them to me. I had some scrapes on both palms that started to bleed a little after I left where I fell. I also had scraped a knuckle on my right hand and my left knee that started to bleed. Should I be concerned?

It is just a superficial abarasions and nothing much to worry about it. You can apply topical antibiotics like mupirocin for symptomatic relief and wound will heal in couple of days.
