You poor creature. Living like in medieval ages.
Good luck! While I applaud your enthusiasm giving the wound time to heal might be the approach with less playing downtime.
I can understand though. In the slap module I squeezed my skin on the finger with the string while trying to pop that there was a wound under the skin. I poked it open (seemed to be the right decision - there were liquids from the wound flowing out. Clear, not pus) but then I had an open wound exactly where I would pop with the index. Despite knowing full well that it hurts like hell when trying to pop I still had to do it sometimes. Usually it went “*pop * AAAAAAAH f#$k”. But I just had to not practice the next thing - not leave my bass unattended.
