Deep Abrasion on foot
I met with an accident two weeks ago and there is a pretty deep wound on my right foot. My foot got pinned under the wheel of a car and a portion of the skin and more got shaved off. There is a deep wound too which has been stitched. I went to the orthopaedic doctor and he put a cast which was there for 12 days and now it has been bandaged with dressing being done twice a week.Using a walker now as there is a swelling. I have attached a pic of the wound from last week. How long will this usually take to heal and what precautions should be taken?

Injury in deep and fresh. It will take 2-3 weeks to get completely healed. And swelling is there so will advise to foot elevation on pillows. Don't give pressure on foot much but keep moving little, finger movements, through out day for proper blood circulation. Homeopathic medicines will help for fast healing. Can contact separately for further discussion.
