That's why I share. :)

FYI, surgeons also tell me not to use soap when cleaning wounds, because it further dries the area out. I'm always told to simply use clean water.

I'm currently using some antiseptic gel as the wound isn't fully closed. When the wound closes (so skin irritation without entrance under it), you can use silicone-based things or petroleum (e.g. vaseline). They may be applicable even earlier on, but surgeons told me not to use them until the wound itself is closed, and I cannot find information quicker, as all results mention scar treatment (silicone sheets can be used long-term on a freshly healed scar to help it heal better afaik - gels are said to evaporate too quickly to help). They help healing when there's no more risk of wound opening and prevent worse scarring, plus definitely reduce pain if it's caused by dried out wound.
