Can i use neosporin for cement burn?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Assuming it is not in any sensitive areas such as around the eyes, face, or genitalia. I generally say no to using it on the face or hands because sometimes, in those areas, it can cause a chemical irritation of the skin that could be confused with cellulitis.
