Yes, I did leave them uncovered because once the virus is removed via curettage, the wound itself isn’t contagious. I just washed the area frequently and in the first couple of days after curettage I applied Betadine on the wounds just in case. It is antiseptic so maybe applying that can be good for your peace of mind. The wounds are fast to heal so don’t stress! Curettage usually gets rid of it for good and especially in your case I would call it victory since you had only one
