Mystic Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) Hello happy new year!!! I was getting some shading work on my sleeve last weekend 7 days ago and on the 2nd day it was apparent that a scab was forming right on the crease of my inner elbow joint .so I've read it will need longer .the first couple of days I let that part dry out but it started to crack with the constant movement so instead I decided to use Bepanthen cream to keep it as moist as possible. All the other scabs have formed ok it's just this one . especially at night in bed the heat from my body keeps the crease of my elbow moist so it's still looking like a open wound. Should I just keep putting the bepanBepaon and keep it clean and just keep it moist? I'm really unsure .thanks Edited January 4, 2020 by Mystic Wrong picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogrider Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 As moist as possible? I'd keep it clean and just a bit of cocoa butter. Sounds like you're over moisturizing it. oboogie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SStu Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 The ditch area is naturally tough to get healed without minor problems. Too much moisture is not going to solve the problem, in fact it could cause more. I let mine dry and crack. The eventual need for touch-ups are common. oboogie and Hands On 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
