Is the wound getting healed?
Age - 29
Gender - Male
I hit my leg with a wooden door 3 days ago. There wasn't much blood, but the wound is a little deep. I washed it with betadine and have been applying betadine ointment while cleaning it with betadine.
Is the wound healing? It's dry and white in the morning now, a little bit of swelling around, there is pain if I touch it. Attaching pictures for reference. My last tetanus booster was 3 years ago.
Should I visit any physician and take any medicine? I recently (3 weeks ago) took some antibiotics cause of the fever. Can someone help me to tell if the wound is healing or not? I have left it open, cleaning it but not covering it. Please help me! thanks in advance!

Chronic fissure
I have chronic fissure since my delivery 4 months ago. I get pain after defecation for 2-3 hour everyday though the pain is mild to moderate. Doctor said that fissure has not healed inside and the chances for it to heal is less likely. Should I go for LIS surgery as the pain is mild or live with the pain? Please suggest as i am confused. Have tried ayurveda medications as well and it failed.

Post-operative care
I've undergone a b/l axillary breast swelling surgery on 24/5/24. My stitches are removed and it has healed from outside. My question was related to the kind of product that I can use while bathing and after. I haven't cleaned my underarms with any soap/bodywash yet.
1. How long after can I use soap/bodywash?
2. Name of specific soap, if any?
3. How long after can I go for waxing?
4. When is it safe to use underarm roll-on or deodorants?
5. When can I resume gym?
Thank you.
