"AAA ointment. It like... gives you Wolverine speed healing. I work in the food service industry (Red Lobster yay), and I get a lot of cuts when I work dish, but all I need is to put on a little Neosporin covered with a Band-Aid overnight, and the next day it's like nearly healed. I ruined my hand because my roommate's dog chews up everything, and she chewed the handle of the garden trowel and it gave me a massive blister that immediately broke open and got ripped off, so after the naked angry red lower layer of skin dried out a little bit, I covered it with a thin layer of AAA and put a Band-Aid over it for two nights, and now it's almost healed. I tell everyone all you need is Neosporin and a Band-Aid, and it works."

"I use it on cuts and scrapes for the whole family, and it significantly contributes to healing with no side effects. We only apply it a couple of times a day, for just a few days."

"I had burned my arm with a curling iron on Saturday, and within a week, I had put Neosporin on at least 8 times a day to keep my burn moist, and I was also using bandages to help keep it on during work and at bedtime. My arm had become swollen, and it itched a lot. I thought the itching was due to it healing. I decided to go to the doctor due to the swelling. The swelling was approximately two inches by three inches. Well, come to find out, I was using too much Neosporin and using it longer than you should. The doctor said I have cellulitis, and I have to take the antibiotic Keflex for 10 days to get rid of it. Always see the doctor first."
