Ointment for cuts, wounds for new born

Question

Asked for Male, 28 Years

Hello dear doctor. I have a 3 weeks baby and sometimes he himself hurt on his face or cheeks by hands and gets small cuts OR sometimes during the massage time he gets small cuts from the person who does that to him. Could you please suggest an ointment/lotion that can be used for new borns for cuts/wounds and also which does not give any burning sensation to the baby? Thank you so much in advance.
