Will my necrosis heal on its own? (Photos)

Asked By:c.ward27 in Tampa, FL

3 weeks PO. My doctor acted as if the are would "fall off" and heal? It looks terrible and it very worrisome to me. I'm apply a silver cream daily as well ask keeping a padding on it because it is leaking fluids which he said is also normal. I just want to be sure! Everywhere else is healing nicely.
