If you can't butterfly it, at least cover it, and wrap your whole hand so that the thumb and pointer fingers are immobilized for a while. The ointment is a good idea. I would keep it dry also.

The most important thing is that it doesn't become infected. Also, if you keep moving your hand, the cut won't heal well.

I have got it so wrapped and taped, it is immobile,
Thanks for your concern, I will be fine.
