Skinned knee is oozing?

Question

I skinned my knee and it has been three days and it is oozing clear liquid

Answer 1

That's actually normal and good sign.  Just make sure you keep it clean and it will heal up just fine.

Answer 2

Don't worry. The clear liquid is likely plasma, the liquid component of your blood. Scrapes, while shallow, remove relatively large areas of skin. Due to the size  of the missing skin scrapes take time to scab over.

Wash the area gently with soap and warm water and pat it dry (do not rub). Put on some neosporin or something similar, and bandage it. At night, take off the bandage to let the scrape "air out" and re-bandage it the next morning.

Oozing is only cause for concern if the discharge is yellow, milky, and/or has a foul odor. In those cases it's a sign of infection.

Answer 3

Great sign!
