First Aid Antibiotic Ointment
When you get a small cut, scrape or mild burn, first aid antibiotic ointment can protect the injured area and help it heal. Antibiotic ointment can also soothe pain or discomfort from injuries. Some ointments contain one medication, while others have a combination of ingredients.
What Is First Aid Antibiotic Ointment?
First aid antibiotic ointment is a topical antibiotic that treats minor skin wounds. Antibiotic ointment contains about 80% oil in the form of petroleum jelly and/or mineral oil, which helps create a protective barrier against infection. It helps soothe the affected area and promote healing. Antibiotic ointment can contain neomycin sulfate, bacitracin zinc or polymyxin B sulfate. Some popular brands of these ointments include Neosporin and Polysporin.
What Is The Best First Aid Antibiotic Cream?
The best first aid antibiotic cream for a rash absorbs easily and should be applied to the entire affected skin area. Burns and cuts may need treatment with ointment, however, once the skin's been broken.
Triple-strength ointment contains all three types of antibiotics and can be purchased over the counter without a prescription. Occasionally, a person is allergic to one of the three ingredients, and they'll need to use a single or double-ingredient antibiotic ointment. Some ointments also include pain-relief medicine.
The main difference between an antibiotic ointment and an antibiotic cream is the amount of oil and water in each. Creams have a higher water content than ointments, and the skin absorbs them more readily. Due to their higher oil content, ointments rest on top of the skin longer, protecting it from germs and moisture loss. Creams and ointments both help prevent inflammation, itching and pain due to infection.
