My former doctor recommended neosporin after removing a mole where stitches were required. However the bandaged area became red and failed to heal after a couple of weeks.

When I went back I got a different doctor who immediately advised discontinuing neosporin or any anti-bacterial ointments. That did the trick to start healing.
