Wound on hand

2017-02-05 08:22:15
I had a wound on hand. doc applied betadine and did the dressing.On 4th day when I checked the wound, its color slightly turned to white. Is that something serious?(I am taking antibiotics and applying ointment on that as per doctor prescription).Just an addon, there is no pain on the wound like before.
