a small boil developed into a
carbuncle.the doctor finally operated it
when it didn't heal for 2 weeks.he
literally scooped out the dead tissue and
the pus.the wound now,was about 1.5-2cms
deep and 5cm long by 3.5-4cms wide.it has
been 6 months since the operation.the
wound has filled in and only the top layer
of the skin needs to grow.but this has
been the case since the past two months.
initially the skin grew till about the
size of a tear-drop of the open wound was
left.then the tear-drop grew bigger until
the it reached back to the original
size.ever since, the skin has been growing
and coming off, the wound size has been
fluctuating.also,there is no diabetes,so
that is not inhibiting the skin growth.a
skin-graft has been advised.but what is
most bothering is why the skin is not
growing and covering the wound,especially
after so long and no diabetes.what could
be the problem?
