Well the bigger and deeper the abrasion or burn could cause it to get infected. If it gets infected then you would want to get some hydrogen peroxide or numbing spray. Then you would want to clean it out. I recently got one and i have to keep it covered with gauze, tape, Aquaphor and or Neosporin.
Hope this helps!!
