Tony wrap the ankle in crepe bandage, not too tight, stops the flies, allows healing. Friend burnt the back of his leg with boiling hot black coffee - we put frozen peas on it to cool, then I wrapped it in said bandage, changed if every day - till we got to Kimba, funnily enough, off to the doctor - he was very pleased - no infection, and starting to heal - we kept it up till it healed properly. All good.
