Hello
I have gone through your question and understand your concern. Wounds at and around joint takes longer to heal because of constant movement. Instead of wrapping or covering the wound clean the wound using aspetic like Betadine solution thrice a day and leave the wound open. Neosporin can also be used after cleaning the wound.
Avoid unnecessary movement of joint around the wound and take a supplement of Vitamin C 500 mg a day to aid wound healing.
Thank you.
