Update from Last Pic

this is my athletes surgical incision from Monday... wound is shallower and not as long but the wound is wider. Athlete saw team physician and was prescribed an oral antibiotic. Athlete is completely grossed out and freaking out about her open wound. We have been applying neosporin with a non adhesive pad and wrapping it and at night she lets it air out.

I would do wet to dry dressing changes curlex with saline and a dry ABD pad to cover and change it 2 times daily

If you air it out it’ll scab and delay healing. I would Apply aquacel or some silver antimicrobial and keep it a closed system.

Don't let it dry out and wet to dry are horrible for a healing wound. You need prisma or acticoat flex. Something along those lines.
