Does Fucidin Leave Scars On Lips? If So, What Is The Solution?

Hi I recently noticed a red colouring under my lip near enough the corner of the right side of my lip it started to get chapped I think I got it from a reaction to a mint lip balm but my mother recently told me to out fucidin on it and it has cleared only a little bit I used this about 5-7 times a day and not very scarcely I m very scared i might cause scarring is it possible for fucidin to give u scars?? Do u have any other ideas on what I can do to get rid of this probelm !!

Dont worry fucidin dose not causes scars. It contains fusidic acid whcih is anei septic so it wont cuse scar but dont scratch more. Not any ointment or cream produces scars rather the inflamatory process is responsible for scarrring. Have following things with that whcih will prevent scrarring.
Tab vit c 500 mg two times a day
Tab serasstiopeptidase + chymotrypsin two times a day Bothe for three to five days.
