I've been using Medihoney Wound Gel 31815 for the past few weeks to treat a persistent wound on my leg. It's a honey-based gel designed to keep the wound moist, fight germs, and reduce swelling. So far, it seems to be working wonders. The wound has started to heal faster than I expected, and the inflammation has significantly reduced. However, I've heard mixed reviews about the side effects. Has anyone else had any issues with it? I specifically want to know about the allergic reactions and skin irritation, as these seem to be the most common side effects. Some of them are actually quite scary, like the blistering and peeling skin with or without fever. It's also important to mention that abnormal bleeding and fever are other symptoms to look out for. I tried calling the FDA hotline for more info but had no luck. What about you guys?

I've been using Medihoney Wound Gel for a few weeks now, and I must say, it's been a game-changer. I had a nasty cut on my leg that just wouldn't heal, and my doctor recommended this honey-based gel. At first, I was a bit skeptical—I mean, honey? But I gave it a shot. The gel keeps the wound nice and moist, which helps with the healing process. It also has this pleasant smell, which is a plus. But I did experience some skin irritation at first. I talked to my doctor, and she said it's a common side effect when your body is adjusting. She advised me to continue using it, and the irritation went away after a few days. Now, my wound is almost fully healed, and I'm impressed with how well it worked. Has anyone else tried this, or have any tips on how to make the most of it?
