Over granulation in injury
I had a cut near the finher nail on ring finger, then it got worse, swelled. Upon some treatment swelling was reduced but the woumd go away maybe due to poking of the nail.
Now the situation is wound is not recovering, because of the over granulation, and new skin is not forming.
Doctor has tried to chamge that red mass to change into black mass by using copper sulphide crystals but that won't work too.
Now a little hole type was produced there with the red granulation tissue appearing there, so doctor has now stiched the skin close around it.
Will that work, and is it safe
I mean wouldn't that granulation increase below the skin?
