Hi
There are many factors which determine healing of wound . 1. Age -- Older age takes more time . 2. Site of wound -- Places of body which can't be given rest heal slowly . 3. Diabetes-- Wounds heal slowly . 4. Steroids-- If patient is on steroids wound heal slowly.
The Antibiotic duration is adequate . Now what counts is whether the wound is infected or is it clean .
If Infected a culture from wound has to be done and antibiotics should be given as per culture report .
But if wound is clean you just have to wait till wound heals .
