I suggest you to take a full course of antibiotic tablet to curtail any chance of secondary infection. You be in good follow up of the doctor who will guide you best regarding the wound. It may take 7-10 days for complete healing. You take proper diet including proteins and fruits along with green leafy vegetables which will help in good recovery at the earliest. If you feel any of the warning signs - such as pain, exuadation or tension/ pressure sensation in the bandage area then immedailtly report to the docotr as it may be because of secondary infeciton in the bandaged area. Do not try to fiddle with the covered area as it may unnecessarily cause problem of infection. Do not stand for long hours as it may cause stress on the leg and may induce pain sensation. In the bed also keep a pillow blow the back of your knee area so that less of tension remain on the area. Do give me a follow up on Monday for your best recovery.
