Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query
I have gone through the image attached and it looks like normal healing process by fibrous rise and scar tissue. Continune the present treatment and what's more important is keeping area clean and moist free.
I usually give my patients chymoral forte twice daily for faster healing.
I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me

Detailed Answer:
Hello
I am sorry we are not yet authorised to prescribe , I can only give recommendation. Fibrous tissue and scar tissue are always whitish.
There are no other alternatives as such, your body should heal on its own . It takes about 4 to 6 weeks.

Brief Answer:
Good to bandage
Detailed Answer:
Hello
It is a good idea to continue to bandage it because its in the hand and it has a high risk of infection. You remove the bandage, clean it properly and leave it open while going to sleep
