-check your blood sugar- hba1c, FBS, ppbs and under control -if any pus/discharge from wound- send for culture and sensitivity- take antibiotics according to the report -get x-ray of the affected part to check if any infection reached to the bone (osteomyelitis) -stop smoking/ tobacco chewing/alcohol intake as it delays wound healing.
