Hi Rowena and everyone using a black salve, ... to be concise, I will type within the text of your post. Hope what I write helps -- this is my personal experience, and may be different from what others have gone through.

The salve does not lose its moisture content during this time, and heat of the skin helps absorption > You just cut off as much [[[of the elastic plaster]]] as you want. > ... it was well and truly covered > with salve, and a round portion of the crust had pushed up away from the > skin, corresponding to the size of the mole that was there. I cleaned it > up, got rid of all the excess crusty salve around the wound, and white and > yellow streaks were visible underneath the "lid" or crust. ... ###From experience, the "white, yellow streaks" are visible in the fresh crust-scab-eschar-(raw lesion) when the plaster is removed. ###Very often the scab can be jet black or has jet black lines in it. The black in the scab is NOT remnant of the salve, but is part of the effect the salve has created in the scab. All residue salve will wash off with hydrogen peroxide of about 3% strength (good antiseptic). >... He had applied > far too much, ... ###This is a common mistake (sad to say), and can cause much pain IF the problem-area in the skin is deep or wide-spread. The "problem" is that the open scab/lesion created by the salve can be large and deep, in which case the edema (red, puffy, fluid-filled swelling around scab) can be extremely painful. If you go to a doctor, he/she will go ballistic; tell you that you have severe infection, and will want to hit you with massive antibiotics ... when really there is zero infection. ###In large-wide problem areas, apply salve to a small area only, and when a scab has formed, then apply more salve to another small area, and keep repeating this till all of the area has been treated. ###You will know when you have covered the whole of the problem area, when the salve no longer starts (or causes) scabs/lesions, since a "good" black salve has effect only on "aberrant" skin-flesh ... on healthy skin the salve has no effect (and nobody in the world can explain this). >... and appled more the next morning - again, unable to see it, as > it was on his spine. ... ###This is when what I wrote above can be intensified = a deeper scab, plus more pain than should be normal. > That night, I had a look at it and saw that the salve-encrusted lid had come > away from the cancer.

No ooze whatsoever. ... ###A good, "healthy" scab, when healing process has run its course, will be dry and crisp and "crumbly" at the edges = a very good sign that there are no problems underneath, as far as I have experienced. ###If no ooze/watery seepage, then it was only skin-deep ... count your blessings. :-) > ... I have put VCNO <<<on the plaster again.>>> .... ###From experience, you should NOT put plaster on the scab-area, "especially" not the water-air-proof plaster. Why? Because it will prevent the formation of a good, crisp, healthy scab. A crisp scab formation is a "must", so that healthy new skin can form under the scab. The scab should be kept dry (or dried with hair dyer after bathing), so that it does not fall off before the new skin forms underneath. > ...

Wash it daily with 3% hydrogen peroxide, and if need be, cover it with a non-stick bandage or gauze, so that the scab can "breathe" ... will help healing. > Rowena > Hope this make sense?
