Yeah I usually cover my flappers in tape while climbing. Definitely a little painful right after the tear.

Looks like I did pretty much everything I was supposed to. I’ve got it covered with a little expired antiseptic cream (today’s mission is to go buy some new antiseptic) and a plaster.
I’m guessing I should cover it in tape next time I climb to give it some protection until the skin has started to toughen up a bit? Right now it’s super sensitive.
