Do NOT apply to the open wound.....around the wound, but leave an area around the edges clean!! How big is this wound and how did it happen and WHY are you using a steroid cream??? just asking, since I am a nurse and these are questions I would ask if you came to my ER!! Also, remember that steroid creams can thin the skin over time, so limit the use!!! Also, if the wound was caused by animal bite, hoof or by any metal, then you need to make sure you are up to date on your tetanus shot!!! :wink:
