Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i met with a minor accident and my hand is injured with no bone fracture,i mean the skin is badly rubbed off, i was cleaning it by myself with dettol and apply cetrimide cream ,its now 4 days with no healing found with little puss on it, will using ampiclox 500mg 6 hrly help healing coz i have cough and heart congestion too
It is necessary using a local antibiotic ointment. In this regard, I would recommend using locally Tetracyclin ointment and frequently clean the skin with Ppovidone-iodine solution to help clean the puss. If the puss persists, consulting with a skin specialist or surgeon will be needed.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
