Unfortunately while it was weaping a big last night, a fat drop of blood, etc. fell on the couch, but it cleaned up with some awesome carpet cleaner I have.

I'll pull off the bandages and clean with hydrogen peroxide again tonight and let it air out until right before bed when I'll put new bandages on it. My hip is a bit sore today, but I'm fine.
The sooner you can let them dry out, the faster it'll heal. Too bad it's not quite shorts weather yet... unless you're Scotty, ironically.
