Hi
Thanks for being at HealthcareMagic
I have gone through your complaints as well as reviewed the attached photograph.
If I was your treating doctor I would recommend you to not pick up the skin and leave it as such.
Also apply a steroid antibiotic cream like mometasone and fusidic acid combination cream like Momate F cream on the affected areas twice daily for 7-10 days.
This will prevent scar formation and pigmentation.
It is a prescription drug and you need to see the doctor in person to get it.
It will take 2-3 weeks to heal completely.
