Something that seals a wound in that sort of situation could maybe trap debris in and potentially be fatal????
It’s a high water content, sterile, gel that comes in sheets and keeps the wound wet, which is essential for healing and pain control. Very good stuff. Made by Spenco, I believe. If not available in the UK, there might be an alternative.
