Iodine should be fine. Can add salt into the water too. The wounds don't look very bad. As long as they don't get infected, it should recover pretty fast.

Yellow powder is more for bacterial infection or wounds.

For fungal infection, you should bask the turtle for ~30 minutes 2-3 times a day.

What I'm using now is Bacidin lotion which I got from the vet.

It will take quite some time for them to recover.

You can apply yellow powder and leave it out of water for around 15 minutes before releasing it back into the tank.
