Or put ointment over the top of it?

Ricci was kicked in her side/haunches last week, vet was out to clean up and cut away the skin flap. He told me to keep it moist but I haven't had a chance to apply ointment until now. So what do I do with the scab?

Okay, thanks folks!

I will add its only a flesh wound, peeled off a few layers of skin but it's essentially just a scrape. She's no where near as sensitive as she was. She has a hematoma at the bottom of her belly. I'm not too worried about that unless someone thinks I should be?

I'll leave it alone, apply ointment if I feel I must. Thanks again!
