Six weeks after surgery your wound should be closed and might possibly have some scab still. Washing every day with soap and water is the right treatment. It will close eventually, gradually. If it is not getting smaller, please consult your surgeon.

Try to protect it with a small piece of gauze or dressing. If it does not heal in a few days pl see your surgeon.
