Wound healing with dead skin/yellow thing inside (Photo)

April 14, 2016
Asked By:flatterjourney in Vienna, VA

Hello Doctors, I am 6 weeks PO . I see that my wound is getting fuller and smaller :-), although I have this stubborn yellow thing inside the wound which even made hole. I am seeing my ps on Monday and I worried that what if this little hole (not the whole wound) get closed with these yellow thing inside because it is looking like to get it covered very soon. Should it be fine to get it closed if it is going to be the case? Or my ps will be opening and cleaning it anyways? Thank you
