If you do not have diabetis and woung is not deep. Then daily dressing is ok, if wound become slightly whitish then add antibiotics. Regards.

yes it is sufficient, in knee nd elbow healing process is slow due to movement but not to worry it may heal with time just keep clean wound

For young male without diabetes (or other co morbidity), nothing is required for superficial scratches. If deep then course of oral antibiotics should help.
