A member asked:
Mesa wound on my rist, two weeks old, finished with oral antibiotic, wound is still about 1 1/2 inches and red and painful, what now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eat well for healing: You have a mesa? Wound on wrist. You took antibiotics. Wound not all healed. That is ok. The wound will heal from the bottom up. Eat healthy and the wound will heal over time. It can take awhile. The antibiotics were to treat infection. If wound becomes foul smelling, has discharge, looks red then call office.
