First off, thank you doctors for taking the time to answer our questions. Im about 10days post p.o. we noticed i had blisters on my right breast. He cleaned me up, said it was superficial and put the b acitracin ointment..the skin has peeled but not completely off. Ive read not to use b acitracin after a couple of weeks. I just want your opinion should i continue to use the ointment or am i better off with good ole Vaseline. It looks like the right side might be blistering too but cant be sure.
