as your friend has passed a two days there is not a serious problem. but now you have to take antibiotics like co amoxiclav, antihistaminics like cetrizine, strong analgesics if pain is more like opioids, and porper wound care. that implies application of neosporin powder with betadine cream till the wound is healed. this will cure your wound. thanx health care magic.
