I hit my leg with a wooden door 3 days ago. There wasn't much blood, but the wound is a little deep. I washed it with betadine and have been applying betadine ointment while cleaning it with betadine.
Is the wound healing? It's dry and white in the morning now, a little bit of swelling around, there is pain if I touch it. Attaching pictures for reference. My last tetanus booster was 3 years ago.
Should I visit any physician and take any medicine? I recently (3 weeks ago) took some antibiotics cause of the fever. Can someone help me to tell if the wound is healing or not? I have left it open, cleaning it but not covering it. Please help me! thanks in advance!
