Wounds will heal more quickly once all the necrotic tissue is removed. If you have persistent areas of non-viability where the blood flow is compormised, then the removal of this tissue will speed up the healing process. Otherwise it is like trying to get vegetation to grow on infertile soil. Ask your surgeon if there is tissue that needs debridement or removal. Closure of an open wound usually begins in earnest about three weeks after injury and complete closure depends on the size and healthiness of the surround and deep tissues. Four months is an extraordinarily long time for the wounds to close.
