Suturing help
My stitch was done on 22nd June in my right knee. It was opened after a week. How long will this take to heal completely. I still can't walk properly and a red layer has formed surrounding the places of my stitches. I am not sure if this is normal or not. I want to know how long will it take to heal.

HELLO,
CONSULT A GENERAL SURGEON. THE WOUND IS IN VERY BAD SHAPE, PROPER CLEANING N DRESSING IS NEEDED.
WHITE PATCHES SEEMS TO SLOUGH, IT SHOULD BE CLEAN UP WITH COPPER SULFATE CRYSTAL.
HIGHER ANTIBIOTICS IS NEEDED PROBABLY INJECTABLE.
I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND THIS,
O.K BYE.
