Lidocaine is available as an injectable medication for dental surgery. Lidocaine ointment may be used on sunburns. A doctor can offer consultation on lidocaine ointment use.Lidocaine ointment may be prescribed for pain management. Lidocaine can be mixed with antibiotic ointment to treat cuts and scrapes. have also used a numbing cream for insect bites. As soon as I get a mosquito bite or any bug bite, I apply a small amount of Lidocaine. This helps with the itching right away. It also comes in a gel form and works just the same as the ointment or cream. That is just a matter of personal preference.
