Re: Emergency!!!

Actually it is only speculation that Iodine slows wound healing - evidence suggests the opposite, that low concentrations, as typically used to clean wounds, infact aides healing of wounds

refer to Wounds International if you need further information: Iodine Made Easy (page 1 of 4) › Made Easys › May Vol 2 Issue 2 › Wounds International (world leading wound management specialists)

Thanks for the advice, it's appreciated, and I was gonna post some pics in a bit, just now got to it.

Not entirely sure if embedding images works in this forum so lemme give it a try.

This is (hopefully) Athena's neck-wound :/


And I could use one more piece of advice. Since tape is now not an option, are there any adhesives that you all use in your habitats? She's been loving to throw the paper towels in her water dish and crumple them all in a corner, so I was wondering if there was a way to make the towels stick down or anything.

Thanks guys!
(Sorry, tried to post earlier, but it wouldn't let me :/)
