Palm skin peel off during cement injury
My skin peeled off, so I went to the doctor. She cleaned the area, dressed it, applied ointment, and put a bandage over it. She told me to change the 🩹 bandage if it gets wet or loses its stickiness. When changing it, I was instructed to wash my hands with soap and water, pat the area dry with a fresh paper towel, and reapply the ointment. She also mentioned that I should keep it covered when I am outside, but I can leave it uncovered while inside the house. However, after a day, a very thin yellow layer formed. I panicked, thinking it might be an infection, but after reading mixed reviews online, I learned it could either be part of the normal healing process or an infection.
But I am suspecting it could be an infection? Could you please give me some advice?
