Dr. Malcom turns to Cassidy and Zeke, his tone calm but clear. "There are just a few things you'll need to keep in mind while the area continues to heal," he says. "No baths or swimming for now. Showers are fine but no soaking. And make sure she doesn't scratch the area, even if it gets a little itchy."
Cassidy nods seriously while Zeke listens closely.
"Instead, apply the ointment I'm prescribing." He scribbles a note on a pad and slides it across to Cassidy. "You can get this at any pharmacy. Just follow the instructions, it'll help keep the area calm while it heals."
Cassidy takes the prescription, nodding. Zeke listens intently, his face etched with concern as he looks at Claire, who watches curiously.
"Also," Dr. Malcom adds, glancing at Claire with a soft smile, "always make sure her hands are clean before she touches the scar. Just a small infection could slow things down."
Cassidy smiles and says, "Thank you, Doctor."
