Hi Thanks for the query. The wound will heal only if she takes rest and doesn't stand fora long time. Leave it open. Clean with Betadiene solution twice a day. With complete rest it would start healing in 2 weeks, but since it is large ulcer it will take at least 2 to 3 months for complete healing.
