Hi @Steve Ella , welcome to the forum.

If you're worried about a cut or a wound not healing well, please see your doctor about it or ask for advice through 111.

In general, it's not advised to apply creams to open wounds.

I'm with @Antje77 ; if something's not healing properly, ask your GP or the assistant about it. If it needs an antibiotic cream, only they can provide it, and if it needs to heal "on the air", as most wounds do, they'll tell you.
