Specializes in Podiatry

Relax: Healing takes time. Usually at least 4-6 weeks to heal the incisions then longer to flatten out the scar. If your healing is delayed there are lots of wound care products that can help. Talk to your doctor or seek out a wound care center.

See below: There are no fast healing medicines, this will take time and sounds like you need continued wound care to heal it.
