Child Health Issues

My baby is 1 year 3 months old. Yesterday he slipped and directly fell straight to the floor from the chair which caused him a injury on his inner lip due to his teeth. I took him to dental clinic to check if there is tooth break. His tooth is fine and doctor has prescribed ORAHELP ointment and MOXIKIND-CV antibiotic for 3 days. Is it fine to give him antibiotic, as the usual doctor whom I visit never suggests antibiotics mostly, and currently I am unable to reach him also. I have attached photo of the mesicines. kindly advise if I can give this antibiotic twice a day for 3 days or just the ointment would be sufficient.

Hi Doctor, This is a clarification post skin tag removal for a 10 day old baby. The paediatric surgeon doctor removed a skin tag on face yesterday and there is a stitch. After the procedure, the hospital nurse told us to come back tomorrow for bandage removal/dressing and to come back next week to remove the stitch. The doctor is a visiting consultant, hence we called the doctor to reconfirm this. The doctor told me to come directly next week ( that is 8 days after the procedure) to remove both the stitch and bandage together. We couldn't clarify this with the doctor much. Not able to connect with the doctor again. Need advice if it's okay to keep the bandage on for a week ( without any cleaning). The hospital provided mupirocin, should we wait till stitch removal next week to apply the same. Please help to advice if it's okay to keep the bandage for a week until the stitch removal and also please help to let us know how to take care of the area until the same. Thanks.
