I got the cotton removed today, and I assumed they would obviously give me ointment or tell me to apply it, but they said there’s no separate ointment and not to apply anything. A staff member did the treatment for me, and they told me to just leave it alone until the stitches are removed On YouTube, other directors say to keep it moist by applying ointment until the stitches are removed. Does whether you apply ointment differ by hospital too?
