Hi, I had cotton wool put on my deep wound
with neosporin, now I cannot remove the
cotton. I've tried saline and soaking it
like the pharmacist recommended, but it
seems like it's stuck to the wound. How
can I remove it?
Thanks.

Try hydrogen peroxide let it soak and do
the bubbling for a few minutes keep poring
more on it to let it soak completly then
try to carefully wipe it away. Hope it
works good luck

Ok, but wouldn't it burn ? I have a
feeling the wound is not completely
recovered as it was pretty deep.
