Oddly it doesn’t hurt unless it gets hit….joe

Having recently had minor surgery with 12 lovely stitches in my upper clavicle area, I've was told not to use Neosporin, but to clean with a combination of 7/8 water and 1/8 peroxide, then coat it with petroleum jelly then bandage to keep the wound and area around it soft, once the stitches were removed, it was highly recommended that I use "Mederma PM" intense overnight scar cream. As the surgeon who did the work is also a great friend, and I know where he lives , I took this as the best of the best in terms of post surgical care. 4 weeks out, and the scar is healing nicely.
