I got burnt today with my bike hot silencer, in my leg lower part. The size of my wound is approx 3 inches. About 1 inch of the wound, skin is removed totally and became white from which puss and blood comes out occasionally. The rest of 2 inches of wound, the skin has became dark brown in color. I cleaned the wound with betadine solution and applying silver sulphadiazine cream. And I am taking *ampoxin 500 *zerodial sp medicines bd my friend recommended the above on a telephonic conversation. Please recommend and help is the procedure correct and how much time will it take to heal completely.

Continue the medicines for one week total, keep area clean, do fresh dressing daily, it will take two weeks to heal, danger of infection if you stop antibiotics.
