23 month old fixated on graze

Hello there Smile
My nearly 2 year old daughter fell over 5 days ago and got a graze on her knee. Since then she cannot look at her knee, nappy changing is a nightmare she’s inconsolable as soon as a sock comes off as she knows what’s coming next. We are on day 5 of limited bath as she will not be naked, hides her knee, moves her leg in such a weird position to not see it but all whilst sobbing uncontrollable screaming “no”. Tried distraction, tried bath toys tried all sorts and i’m at my wits ends. She says constantly “bye bye knee” up to about 20 times in a row. What can I do?! It isn’t painful now as she kneels for play etc.
Thanks for all your support

Poor love, she mustn't realise that it's going to heal.

Have you tried putting a plaster on it?
