Get a biopsy: Persistently open non-healing wounds should be evaluated by your internist or dermatologist. This may require a biopsy or may be an indication of another problem.

Might be skin cancer: See your doctor and ask about a biopsy to make sure this isn't a skin cancer (it probably is, and can be easily cured by proper removal).
