Hi Thank you for asking HCM I have gone through your query. Systemic antibiotics are usually not needed for such tears. You can use betadine ointment for local application. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the area and instead use saline or warm water for washing. Dry with soft cloth and apply betadine ointment. You can put some gauze piece for not getting hurt by clothing. Also use loose underwear. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
