HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the would is too widen and deep then you have to see the doctor and if it super facial then it is nothing to worry because with proper care it will heal soon but of course care needs to be taken for infection if the healing delayed then better to see the surgeon hope this information helps.
