Hello,
Thank You for using Health Care Magic to post your question.
I read it carefully and I understandyour concern.
My thoughts to your health question are:
1. clean the wound using water and soap
2. apply a triple antibiotic cream (make sure you are not allergic of any of the ingridients)
3. cover with non adesive gauze not very tight.
Please feel free to write me back for more questions.
Regards,
Dr. E.Manoku
