Wound Care
After thoroughly cleaning the wound and ensuring there are no foreign particles, apply Lucas’ Papaw Ointment as soon as possible after experiencing the wound.
Best results are experienced by covering the wound completely in Lucas’ Papaw Ointment and then covering with a clean dressing such as a Band-Aid or bandage – depending on the size of the affected area and the position of the wound on the body.
Covering the wound has two advantages:
Holds the ointment in place over the wound so it can do its job without being wiped off
Prevents the ointment from being deposited on clothes/bedclothes etc
The dressing should be changed regularly.

It soothes sensitive skin and heals rashes, while acting as a gentle yet effective barrier to protect babies’ delicate skin from nappy rash, dryness and irritation. It works by protecting the skin from prolonged periods of moisture, as well as the healing enzymes in papaws working to soothe and restore the already affected areas. It has also won buyers’ choice awards for baby products in previous years.
Apply Lucas’ Papaw Ointment as a thin barrier over the affected area.
