Hi there is a very deep wound on the top of my foot which happened around 3 weeks ago. A scab has formed but there is slight swelling around the wound even after 3 weeks. Is that normal or should i have an antibiotic? I am using Tbact oointment on it everyday

Hi
Welcome to HCM
I have gone through your query. Scab is formed post wound, it is part of normal healing process. It is difficult to comment without examination, so I would suggest either seeing doctor for examination or uploading pictures of it for better assessment. Decision on antibiotic can be taken post examination.
Hour this helps.
Take care
