The healing and wound ointment "Retterspitz Wund- und Heilsalbe" supports the healing process. The essential oils it contains (spruce needle oil and mountain pine oil) have an odour-reducing effect. Retterspitz Wund- und Heilsalbe acts like a barrier against bacteria thanks to the supportive antimicrobial properties of the ingredient thymol. Retterspitz Wund- und Heilsalbe relieves pain and eases the passage of stool through the rectum by increasing the lubrication. Unless otherwise prescribed, apply Retterspitz Wund- und Heilsalbe once or several times a day to the affected skin area. Use a freshly washed fingertip to introduce a small amount of ointment into the anus after each bowel movement. Hands should be washed thoroughly with soap after rubbing in the ointment.
