i would suggest you dear patient that you go to a surgeon. he will look at the lesion . he will decide whether the wound is of what kind . he will see whether he requires to do sugical intervention for the wound. only after seeing the lesion he will be able to decide. unless the lesion is seen, merely from history it becomes difficult to narrate the treatment. hence at its immediate you need to go to the surgeon.
