I’ve just realised I’ve been using germaloids cream instead of germalene !

I put bottom cream on my wound (accidentally), I had a punch biopsy recently and was told to put antiseptic cream on when I change the dressing. I noticed the cream had not absorbed very well and as I was squeezing more cream out the tube today I thought the consistency was off, I then noticed it wasn’t germalene it was germaloids. I cleaned off the cream, let it dry and applied a new dressing. It looks ok, hoping it won’t have caused any issues. I do feel very silly. I’ve just had new glasses so I’m blaming them.

It won't do any harm. Good job you noticed though.

🤣 I recently use my ovestin on my toes for athletes foot. My toes have never been more plump and enticing.
