Hi thanks for asking question.
To heal well wound must be clean with doing regular proper dressing initially with betardine and then after with normal saline.
Take vitamin c containing food more which will fasten healing.
Antioxidents are helpful for healing.
If you are taking steroid for any condition then stop it.
Overall healthy nutritional diet help healing fast.
Check about your diabetes condition .as in diabetes wound healing delayed.
I hope i have solve your query
