Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I would simply use a mild soap and water. Clean it twice daily and dry it well. Be sure to watch for an infection. If the wound is deep then I recommend taking her to the Vet or reposting here with a picture so I can guide you better. I wish you both the best!
