I used Biafine which is the same cream I was given for radiation burns. It is a deep healing wound vitimin E cream. My doctor said any vitamin E cream would do, but when I mentioned Biafine, he seemed very pleased with my choice. It is or at least was precription 12 years ago( is it really that long) so you'll need at script.
Take care,
Eileen
