Brief Answer:
Three to four times a day is more than enough.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Dear
Welcome to the HCM,

Antibacterial Cream application can be done three to four times in a day. If the cream is wiped out then it can be reapplied. Its also a good idea to wash the wound with a mild soap and warm water to remove any dirt from the wound.

Analgesic antiinflammatory syrups like paracetamol can be given @ 15 mg per kg for the relief of pain.

Hope the query is answered.

Please feel free for further clarification.
Thanks
