My husband went to the dermatologist last week and had 3 suspicious moles removed from his back. Since then, I’ve been “nursing” him back to health. The first few days, I had to wash his back so he wouldn’t injure the spots. And of course, my duties included putting on fresh band-aids twice a day, as well as the antibacterial cream the doctor recommended. We took it one step further and bought a tube of StaphAseptic at the drug store to apply it as well. After blogging about this product, I knew that I wanted to give it a try. We bought a small tube and I’ve been applying it daily. The product is designed to kill MRSA skin infections and bacteria before they can cause a problem. It also has a pain reliever, which is a huge plus when you have 3 gaping wounds on your back. (I’m not sure why antibiotic creams don’t do the same thing - if you’ve got a cut or scrape, a pain reliever in the cream is a good thing!)

The StaphAspetic went on easily - no mess, and I covered everything with band-aids. Jim’s back is healing up nicely and he doesn’t even feel anything back there. He’s not completely healed up yet, but we know he won’t be getting any skin infections!
