No. It is not advisable to use A and D ointment on a 2nd degree burn blister that has split openeven if you do not have bacitracin. you can just run the burn under cool water to avoid infection.
Yes, as it is not a part of the penicillin family.
Yes you can. I'm currently enrolled in a Pet Care class, and there is a Chapter on Pet Illnesses and Emergencies. Our First Aid Kit must contain an antibacterial ointment, and Bacitracin or any other "triple antibiotic" ointment is preferred for use on animals. Take care.
Shave very carefully! Or use an electric razor.
My vet prescribed Fougera brand Neomycin and Polymyxin B Sulfates and Bacitracin Zinc Ophthalmic Ointment USP for use in my dog when she had an eye infection.
You can use a topical antibiotic ointment, such as Neosporin or Bacitracin ointment. If the nail is torn down into the pad, or the bleeding does not stop within a few minutes, the wound may need a vet's attention.
To avoid razor bumps, one should stop shaving. But if one can't avoid shaving, one should use a clean needle to release the embedded hair shaft. This usually stops razor bumps from developing.
I did when my dog got pink-eye. I used the same ointment I had for it, and itworked fine.NO! If your dog has an eye problem, see a veterinarian and have it properly diagnosed and treated.
its just part of the texturing. unless you have REALLY big bumps, in which case you have a glitch. Some people are prone to razor bumps more than others due to their hair type. Generally African American men suffer the most from razor bumps in general to the texture of their hair. Curly haired people suffer more from razor bumps due to the fact that once the hair starts to grow back, the angle that the hair grows from the skin causes the hair to curl or bend back toward the hair shaft causing ingrown hairs and razor bumps. The best way to avoid this is to use a fine scrub before and after shaves, and to keep the skin hydrated and clean. Target carrys a wonderful line called Everyman Jack that is ideal for razor bump prone skin. Some men use a T-Edger and get a close shave avoiding razors all together. Most black men wouldn't touch an electric razor.
The fastest way to remove razor bumps is to allow the hair to grow out before shaving again. Also look for something containing salicylic acid, glycolic acid, witch hazel or aloe.
You shouldn't use bacitracin on any pet. Keep it out of reach of small children, too.
