Hello, first of all, I'm sorry for the late reply.

Make sure that your dog's wound is not infected with a secondary infection. Secondary infections are when the area is swollen, pus come out, and a lot of exudate comes out.
In this case, bacteria, fungi, etc. may have been secondaryly infected with the wound.
In this case, please visit the animal hospital for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

For primary wound lesions, wipe the area with sterile physiological saline, disinfect it with beta-dine disinfectant, and apply an ointment containing antibiotics (Mupirocin), repeat twice a day.
If the wound does not recover within 5-7 days, please visit an animal hospital.
