Painful wound near right ankle

2025-12-21 06:14:48
I have been facing sharp poking pain inside this wound on near my right angle. I have taken doxt-sl tablet and Zimba ointment after referring a dermat for this but the pain doesn't go down. The pain is inside the wound. No idea how and when it appeared It's been there since a month and it's getting worse with time . What exactly has happened? And what do I do ahead about this?

The wound looks dry in the pictures, antibiotics looks like they have helped. But a closer examination to make sure it has healed from inside will be better to ascertain why u might be having pain. Try to reduce movement of the involved area, do not use hot water on the area and apply moisturizer regularly.
