Dear sir,

The edema you are having is body's reaction to surgery. You need to apply steroid cream on the lesion under the guidance of your doctor. You can start applying Momate F cream twice daily and Contractubex cream twice daily for 4 weeks.

This should give good relief. Please use the medicaitons in consult with your Doctor.

Patient replied :

If i just leave it to take its course to heal without applying anything? It would just take longer to heal?

Dear Sir,

It shall certainly take much longer and there is always a possibility that it may not heal properly.
