Can I use arnica cream on broken skin?
No. The pack instruction is to avoid broken skin, and it is worth following.
Should I patch test?
Yes, on a small area, and leave it a day. Plant-based products can still cause a reaction.
What is Silicol Skin Gel?
A silicic acid gel applied topically. A different sort of product from the creams here.

If skin is broken, weeping, spreading or painful, or before combining anything with a prescribed cream.
