Local care: Fear not, this will still heal fine. Keep clean with gentle use of soap and water in the shower, and do not hesitate to apply a triple antibiotic ointment lightly each day. This will soon he'll in on its own. Avoid sexual activity for several weeks until clear to prevent further compromise of the incision.
