First swim was cancelled

Our first swim therapy was set for Thursday. He tried on his life jacket and was ready to go!! Tuesday evening three small lesions were discovered on his amputation site. This is the first skin ulcers we have dealt with from contact. His swim is deferred for 3 weeks to try heal. This area has always been very soft and thin, so it’s scary now that skin breakdown is starting. I will post a picture for ”  ask the vet” as of yet my vet hasn’t ordered any antibiotics and I’m wondering if I need to push for that, I have to stay aggressive and make sure this heals. His cart and brace will be ready Monday so that should help. Asking for ideas on skin care
