Second Opinion. Surgeon Said to Apply Neosporin Twice a Day? (photo)

Glendaaus
Thanks for viewing. I am a little over 3 weeks out from my tummy tuck. My surgeon has said I need to apply neosporin (which is on it in the photo) twice a day and it will heal in a few weeks. I was wondering if any of the doctors here think I need antibiotics or any other treatment?
