Hello Gabrielle,
I am glad that it got to you so quickly. Wow it was 60 degrees? I tried to wrap it up well, hopefully the newspaper helped out some.
It is water based which may be why it dried like that. It is fine to put the bandage on after the gel treatment, letting it dry, absolutely. It is perfectly safe to put it on any fungal areas, too. It shouldn't cause any redness, irritation or pain either on the wound.
Hermies is doing very well & I am glad that she had such a great day.
Nammer looks awesome, he is doing terrific, also!
