    just 3 days prior to my first fight, i unfortunately clashed heads with a sparring partner and got a real big cut, just between the eye and my eyebrow, right on the bone.

    today i had the stiches removed, i asked the nurse about some kind of lotions, which might help, but she didnt know any..

    should i just let it be, without putting some lotion or is it good to rub some sort of lotion on..

    That's ****ed mate. I don't think there's much you can do besides trying not to get hit.

    perhaps i didnt make myself understandable,sorrry guys ;-) but from the get go, i was aware of, that it was impossible to do the fight.. it was a quite good looking cut..:D

    but i was thinking , while im still not able to spar, if there is something i could do, to make the healing proces better.. perhaps something which toughens up the skin, if such a thing exists..:good
