Apply it 3 or 4 times a day. Give it a few days and if you see no change your going to have to see your Dr. Make sure you get those little bandages to keep the ointment from rubbing off, that will help a lot.

Yes, you can buy these yourself. Just go to any drug store or grocery store. You should have a choice of either an antibiotic ointment or the cream. It comes in a tube and you just put some on the cut a few times a day.

I've never heard of Superdry. We don't have anything like that around where I live. You can go to any drugstore or supermarket to get the antibiotic ointment and little bandages there.

Okay, that's what going on. If you keep picking the scab off then it will take forever for it to heal. Yes, leave it alone and get some antibiotic ointment to put on it. You can get this at any store. They also make these tiny bandages, get some of those too. The bigger ones will just rub off against your clothes where as the tiny ones should stay put.

Keeping it dry will help but it's still going to rub against your clothes.Have you tried an antibiotic ointment on it? This concerns me because it's been going on so long. I really think it would be a good idea to see your Dr.

A month ago and your still having problems? I really recommend seeing your Dr. I do think it could be an infection. It's just better to be safe.

From what I can see, it looks like you might have an infection going on. Get in to see your Dr so they can take a look at it. You may need antibiotics.
