Inability To Lose Weight, Slow Healing Wound. On Augmentin But Not Healed. Had Carpel Tunnel Surgery In Hands
Hi I am looking for some possible answers. I have had an inability to lose weight and have very slow healing wounds. For example I was scratched by a cat 4 weeks ago and am now on a 2nd round of Augmentin and still am not healed. Little water blisters continue to appear all around the wound and everything itches. I had carple tunnel surgery on both hands a couple years ago and it took 3 months for them to heal with the same blisters appearing then as well.

Hi,
Apparently there is no reason of having delayed healing process.
As you seems to have over weight and delayed healing, rule out Diabetes.
Go for blood sugar estimation fasting and two hours after lunch.
Ok and take care.
