Hi,
I feel instead of putting Silverex ointment, if the bleeding continues. There would be temporarily closer of the wound, the blood may collect around stitches and infection may set in. It's better to see your treating doctor, for local examination to assess source of bleeding &start with antibiotics and needful dressings to achieve healing from base of the wound.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
