Clean wound with only sterile Normal saline and gauze pieces. Avoid dettol or Savlon etc. to clean. Apply Mupirocin or Fusidic cream morn and night till it totally heals. Also apply moisturiser like Venusia max cream 2 to 3 times a day on surrounding healed but dry skin.
Next Steps
Kindly show a Dermatologist for in person consultation.
