Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had 2 small moles removed one from chin and the other from left side of face 3 days ago. I have sutures. The one on left side of face looks good while the one on my chin is itchy and a little red with slight swelling. There is no oozing or pain. I was using Bacitracin as recommended by surgeon, when I called the office to let them know of redness and itching, the Dr. told me to stop the bacitracin. Does this mean that I'm not healing properly. I am not a smoker and I don't have diabetes. I am in good health and usually heal quickly. Thank you, Rita
