Suggest Treatment For Scar On Nose After A Fall In Child

Yesterday, my 14-month granddaughter fell on her sidewalk and got a bad sidewalk burn on her nose and a small on her forehead.Her nose is swollen some.Her Mom is putting children s neosporin on it and I told her to be sure and 100% sunblock to keep from tanning.Are these correct and what would you recommend to speed healing and to prevent scarring?My son and wife are so worried about scarring.It s really burned badly on her nose.Thanks, Janet Steele

Hi....USUALLY THE BLOOD SUPPLY TO THE FACIAL REGION IS VERY RICH AND THE HEALING WITHOUT MUCH SCARRING CAN BE EXPECTED.

But....Skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically.

Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
