General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi Richard,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
For the symptoms you are describing, you can apply cream containing Fusidic acid over the affected area twice daily after cleaning the part with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon.
Take antihistaminic medication containing Levocetirizine once a day.
Gradually, as the wound heals, such symptoms should subside and should get better.
Hope the information provided helps.
Best wishes.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.
