Default Freaking out will Panda be ok????

I'm using sudocrem on Pandas wound. I put some on when I came home and I caught him licking it about 10 min. After. I stopped him but I'm freaking out and paranoid. I know it used for babies but is it going to harm him for the short amount of time that he licked his wound ???? Please respond asap. He seems perfectly fine.

I'm not really familiar with sudocrem, but seeing that the question hasn't been answered yet, I'll try to help you out th best I can.
From what I've read, it's safe for hamsters, as long as they don't consume a ton of it. How much did you put on? Do you know how long he was licking it? I'd say he's probably fine, but keep an eye on him and check on him often for the next couple of days. If you put a lot on and/or he licked it all off, it might be worth taking Panda to the vet. But, if he seems fine, I wouldn't worry too much.
Then again, that's from what I could find. Use your best judgement; you know what's best for Panda. (:

I try to just put enough to cover his wound. He didn't lick much off. His wound is healing nicely so pretty soon I can stop using it

I really wouldn't worry too much, it is pretty safe stuff & quite a lot of people use it with hams, I think it's inevitable that they will lick it to some extent so if there was a problem I'm sure we would have heard about it.
So long as you just use a really thin layer I think Panda's going to be fine with it.
