2017-03-30 12:41:45
Hello am from Chennai,India I got a minor accident on 2 wheeler (25.03.2017) i just had my tetanus injection in hospital on the same day, 5 days past and now am applying ointment and taking tablets, and my doubt is about that whether i need to wash my wounds with water in between(morning and evening) applying my ointment or i can directly apply my ointment without washing my wounds with water? Thank you
