Suggest Treatment For Cut On Penis Head

Not a good choice
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,welcome to HCM forum.
The said ointment contains combination of anti-bacterial,anti-fungal,along with steroids.Steroids and topical anti fungals are better avoided on abraded skin.
The treatment depends on the depth of wound.If it is only a superficial abrasion,just wash well with soap and water,and apply antibacterial creams like povidone-iodine or mupirocin twice daily for 5-7 days.
If it is somewhat deep,there is high chance of spreading infection,and need to be treated with oral antibiotics and anti inflammatory agents.For this,your doctor will guide you.
Also,you should get a tetanus shot if you had not one recently.
Hope this will answer your query.
Wishing you good health.
Thank you.


Need not worry
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
If there is only a discoloration and no visible cut/edema/pain,this need not be worried.You can apply polysporin ointment(though it is not same as povidone iodine,this also will work).Watch for edema/pain,and report to your doctor if this happens.Otherwise,just apply the ointment for 5-7 days.
Anyhow,if there was abrasion/oozing of blood initially,it is better to get tetanus shot,as I already told.
Hope now you got cleared.
If you have no further questions,you can rate the answer and close the discussion.
Thank you.
