Guest guest Posted August 20, 2005 Report Share Posted August 20, 2005 A mild emollient cream is the best idea. Unless the open areas are obviously infected (pus is visible or the redness extends from the wounds a bit more than irritation would suggest), I would stay away from antibiotic creams and ointments. If it stings on application, don't use it. And cover with a telfa bandage or leave open to heal.
