Is my wound healing normally???

Post by Fern_Leaf » Sun, 31 May 2009 11:17 pm

Dear all,

I had met an bike accident on the expressway three weeks back and had suffered from a 7 by 4 cm awful wound.

Gosh..The wound is recovering real slowly and it looks horrible.

It is a big red patch with lots of black dots.

Argh, it really upset me whenever I look at it. =(

Any remedies for scars and well, is my wound healing normally?? I dont remember seeing pinkish-red pigmentation on my previous wound.

The pictures of my wound is as shown:-

why creating an account on an expat forum in Singapore to show your wound pictures? Seriously...

If you're worried about your wound, don't ask strangers without proper medical training for advise on a forum, go to the hospital for crying out loud!

until you start having high fevers and begin seeking out other injured people to take pictures of, you are fine.

scarring depends on your body really. some people scar less than others. being young helps too.

at that position (is that your shoulder?) keloids are unlikely though, if that's what you're worried about.

how did the accident happen? what bike do you ride?
