General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Your symptoms seem to be related to the healing process.
I suggest using a first aid antibiotic ointment (Bacitracin, Neosporin, Polysporin) .
It can be applied to help prevent infection and keep the wound moist.
Continued care to the wound is also important.
Three times a day, wash the area gently with soap and water, apply an antibiotic ointment, and re-cover with a bandage.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
