Hello,

To promote healing, keep the wound clean and dry, continue drugs / ointments as suggested by doctor. A usual diet would be enough, but good to include green leafy vegetables and fruits.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hi,

You should keep her pain free if needed, she can take eggs, meat and pulses and fresh juices. That will aid in her speedy recovery.
