Penicillin ointment

Skin disease is a common disease in daily life. It is mainly a disease that people with weak resistance will suffer from. It is mainly an inflammation. Everyone generally knows that penicillin is an antibiotic that is relatively effective in eliminating inflammation. Penicillin ointment can be used for cases such as mosquito bites, skin infections, etc. The following are the main effects of penicillin ointment.

1. Skin infection.

As an antibiotic ointment, erythromycin ointment is primarily used to treat and prevent skin infections. Erythromycin ointment can be used for purulent skin diseases such as impetigo and infections of ulcer surfaces. It can also be used for infections at the junction of the skin and mucous membranes, such as around the mouth and anus. The general usage is 2 times a day, apply thinly to the affected area. In addition to fighting infection, erythromycin ointment has other uses.

2. Minor trauma.

Erythromycin ointment can be used for minor bruises, scratches or other injuries on the body. The general usage is to clean and disinfect the affected area, then apply an appropriate amount of ointment to the affected area, twice a day.

3. Mild burns.

For small burns or scalds, you can first rinse the wound with cold water and then apply a thin layer of erythromycin ointment on the surface.

4. Mosquito bites.

When the mosquito bite is serious, you should clean and disinfect the bitten area in time, apply an appropriate amount of this ointment twice a day for 5-7 consecutive days.

5. Nosebleed.

Dry weather can make the already dry nasal mucosa of some people more fragile, so nosebleeds often occur. At this time, you may wish to apply an appropriate amount of erythromycin ointment to the nasal septum, 4-5 times a day. It can disinfect and soften the nasal cavity, moisturize the nasal mucosa, improve the nasal environment, and prevent re-bleeding. Do not apply too much to prevent the ointment from flowing back into the mouth.

6. Angular cheilitis.

Angular cheilitis is mostly caused by infection and is more common in preschool children. For bacterial angular cheilitis, you can apply a small amount of erythromycin ointment and take vitamin B2 at the same time. It should be noted that although erythromycin ointment is widely used, it is ineffective against skin diseases caused by fungal infections such as tinea capitis, onychomycosis, tinea cruris, and tinea manuum and pedis. Erythromycin ointment may occasionally cause adverse reactions, such as local burning, dryness, itching, erythema, and occasionally urticaria-like reactions.
