How deep is the cut.? If it's pretty deep you may require stitches. As far as the antibiotic ointment goes, make sure you put just a thin layer of it over the cut. If you glob it on it will actually harbor germs and hinder the healing. And don't forget to let the cut to breathe in between dressing changes.

Hope this helps. Health Question & Answer

If it does not need stitches, then after the cleaning and disinfecting, just put a band-aid or some other protective cover on it, and you should be fine.Health Question & Answer
