What can i do topically for a musky wound odor other than frequent showering?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Charcoal dressing: This begs the question that the wound has been evaluated by a health professional to determine why there is an odor. For particularly foul smelling wounds, charcoal based dressings are great for odor absorption. There are several companies that make such dressings and a quick internet search will give you access to options to fit your wound size and budget. Ask your doctor for an rx.
