Answer: applying a topical antibiotic to the wound

Explanation: According to the Canadian health care network. In regular people, the only method that has not to be pursued is the application of topical antibiotics in the wound in a minor cut after washing it with soap and water and stopping the bleeding and covering with a bandage to protect it to environmental exposure and bacteria. Because the body should carry the healing by itself. However, if the infection is shown after the first 12 hours topical antibiotic should be applied.
