Why? because it's antiseptic, has lanolin in it, and is what they use to treat tattoos down here in Australia, which is effectively a similar wound.
No, I wouldn't advise using it long term, but for a few days while something like this is healing wouldn't hurt, and it's cheap as chips too ($5.95 AUD for a small tube which would last ages). "
Use.. sparingly.
