Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concerns.
As it has been almost 10 days bow, the wound must be healing well by now.
There is stretching for which you can apply Vaseline jelly.
However, if you have pain, swelling etc, then you can consult your doctor for examination of wound.
Hope this helps.
Feel free to ask further.
Thanks.
