Someone examined you and provided a Rx for your antibiotic (hopefully you're not taking unsupervised meds). That practitioner knows what your would looked like, and what it should look like now. We can't see it, nor do we have your history. Were you given any other instructions to aid wound healing? Return to your original physician for an informed opinion.
