Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having soft tissue bacterial infection giving ris this problem.
Continue with antibiotic medicine for 5-7 days.
It is advisable to clean the part with proper removal of pus and slough by your doctor and then go for dressing.
Improper removal of pus and slough will take more time to heal.
Ok and take care.
