What Treatment Is Suggested For Infections Caused Due To Would?

Hi I have cuts on my leg that I think might be infected. Is there any way I can treat these cuts with something that may get rid of the infection without needing to go to a doctor? And how can I be sure it is an infection without going to a doctor? Help!
