Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
Cipladane contains povidone iodine.
It's used as a antiseptic and antibacterial.
Yes, you can use it on wounds.
Apply a very thin layer over the wound once or twice a day.
Take a TT injection also.
Consult a general physician in person for further evaluation and management.
Best regards.
