How Long Does Corn Cap Holes Take To Heal?

I had a corn removed from my toe last week. It must have been pretty deep bc now I have a large hole in my toe. I am using antibiotic cream and taking cephalexin for a week. How long should it take for the hole to close up, and will it really close up to normal skin?

Hello,
Thank you for your contact to health care magic.
I understand your cconcern. If I am your doctor I suggest you that as your corn is very deep it requires a long time to heal may be 2 to 3 month. It will come back to normal skin having a mark of incision on it. But till that time continue with your medication.
I will be happy to answer your further concern
