Brief Answer:
Nice healing- yes, itching is due to healing

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your review query and the picture.
The picture shows the wound is almost healing.
Only few mm are remaining and I hope this should be alright within this week or so.
Please continue the same regimen as it has helped you.
I hope you are still taking multivitamins supplements.

As discussed earlier the itching /tickling sensation is commonly seen in almost all the patients in the last healing stages.
The progress is good, although a bit delayed than expected; what is more important is it is healing and almost closing.

I hope this answers your query.
