Hello,
Thanks for the query,

The main aim is to prevent infection.

You can start applying an antibacterial cream like mupirocine.

Make sure you dont wet the area.

If there is pain you can take analgesics.

Please meet a dermatologist if any problem occurs.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
