Yes it can, and is recommended. Also consider after u bathe, puttong coco butter in it, it will not sting, will not infect, and will stop the drying out causing scaring. U must use it everyday and is available in stick form cheaply in most drug stores, this is assuming that the wound is drying bcuz its starting to scab over

Keep it out of water let it scab this naturally keeps the tissues underneath clean and sterile it will drop off when its ready and new skin has grown it will be pink but eventually fade. If the waters gets to the scab it gets soggy and can come away causing a deeper scar.
