Takes time: Sounds like you are doing everything right. Could take up to 4 months to heal up. Check in with the doctor or provider with wound care experience to get more reassurance. Sometimes if a wound is wet and gooey need to let air get to it to dry it out. Wound care is an art form. There are surgeons that specialize just in this area of medicine.
