Aquaphor: You can apply Aquaphor ointment(a healing ointment)often during the day.That should help with healing and relieve some pain.Be cautious when wiping after a bowel movement so the bacteria from the stool doesn’t get into the cut(s). The ointment will also help with that.Please see your doctor if it is not healing,pain is worse,or there is pus forming (possible infection).Also try not touching much.
