Brief Answer:
PLease, upload an image!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this cut that your mother sustained. I will suggest that you upload an image. This would help me to provide personalized and helpful recommendations. Without an image, I may be generic and not hitting the nail spot on.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
