Hi, It will take another 3-4 days to crusting...Healing follows a natural cycle and you have to just see that nothing delays it.. Factors which delays normal healing are repeated trauma, infection, poor immunity etc.. So consult your physician if you have any concern or if you start seeing pus etc..
