I fell and cut my forehead 4.5 days ago. The cut was pretty deep, and a scab was formed. It seemed to be healing great, but I used Neosporin before bed last night, and as I was sleeping half of my scab rubbed off. The scab was about 5/8" x 1/8" in length. When the scab came off, there was little pain but it didn't last. It exposed the wound a bit, which is reddish and there are a couple spots of deeper indentation. There wasn't any bleeding, and seems like a new scab will not form. Overall, it looks similar today as it did yesterday, but a little bit of an indent because that scab is gone. How can I treat this? Should I keep the area moist? Should this create a worse scar? Any help would be great. Thank you!

i would clean it with hydroen peroxide and keep it clean this way then put neosporin on it when your done using the peroxide use qtips to put the neosporin on this would start the healing process over agian should be okay after that but you want to keep it clean and keep it from getting infected so do this cleaning everyday till it is healed good then you can move on with your life i m sure you have already
