    As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

If by "carve", you mean deep, then get medical assistance. Timely intervention will help to reduce scarring. I don't know about products but keep it clean to reduce the chance of infection and do not pick at the scabs as heals. But the most important thing is, as I said, to get immediate medical help.

As others have said, please consider medical treatment if it's fresh and 'too' deep.
