Hello dear...I can understand your concern. Stop experimenting between medications. There might be secondary infection. That could be delaying the wound healing. It is better to do a pus culture and sensitivity to start on appropriate antibiotics. Also rarely even even cutaneous tuberculosis or subcutaneous mycoses can present like that. In such a skin biopsy might be required. So kindly consult a nearby dermatologist or general surgeon as soon as possible for further evaluation.
