Hi,
Do not scare for permanent damage, it is easily manageable.
- Keep the part clean with sterile water only.
- Apply Polymycin cream 3 times a day.
- Wear loose, clean, cotton inner wears.
- Get prescription of antibiotic (as cephalosporin group or else) and anti-inflammatory drug (as Ibuprofen or else) from your doctor for faster recovery.
- Keep your blood sugar under control.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
