A member asked:
I was circumcised 4 weeks ago, the wound is healing well, except the frenulum which is almost fully healed the scab keeps falling off periodically. would applying a liquid bandaid such as "new skin" be ok?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No skin: That should do no harm. It just might be the thing to close the wound.

My impetigo sores have turned to actual dark red scabs after application of Mupirocen for 4 days. Does this mean it is healing and new skin is forming?
