A member asked:
Why is it that my wound still look so fresh after 3 days?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Natural process: When our bodies sustain an injury, the immediate response is inflammation (red, hot, tender swelling). This is the body increasing the blood flow and bringing healing factors to the area and also the veins expand to carry bad stuff away. As healing occurs, new tissues fill in composed of capillaries. This process can take a few days. If you keep it covered so no scab develops, it will heal fast.
