@thewindupbirdchronicles oh you mean paying attention to not apply it to the broken skin? You’re just arguing for the sake of arguing, you’re incorrect and need to review wound care techniques before giving advice.

@Flenflyys The skin around broken skin is not broken. Those topical treatments can work there. And ps, rubbing alcohol is more effective than hydrogen peroxide in some situations. I wasn't giving advice, but thank you. (It's called isolating the wound)

Another old school thing u can do is to put cigarette ash over it.

And eventually the navel will fall off.
Apparently it's works and was done alot
