It’s important to keep your wound clean and protected to promote proper healing and reduce the chance of scarring.

🩺 Wound Care Tips

• Gently clean the wound daily with mild soap and water to prevent infection.
• Apply a prescribed antibiotic cream like Chitomesh Sugar Free Cream (contains sodium fusidate) if recommended by your doctor to help prevent bacterial infection.
• Keep the wound covered with a sterile dressing and change it regularly to maintain a moist healing environment.
• Avoid picking at scabs or scratching the area, as this can increase scarring.
• Protect the healing skin from direct sunlight by covering it or using sunscreen once the wound has closed.

⚠️ When to See a Doctor

• If you notice increased redness, swelling, warmth, pus, or worsening pain around the wound.
• If the wound does not show signs of healing after several days.
• If you develop fever or other signs of infection.
