You healing is abnormal.If any fluid is coming out from the wound that is yellow,reddish,brownish or pus like you need to go back to the doctor.You will need regular dressing.I suggest you get you sugars checked if you healing is delayed.Also antibiotics will be needed and a swab test should be done.
