I've got a scratch wound on my shin from climbing a rope during an obstacle course, and it's about 10 days old now. For the first few days, I used an ointment and kept it covered like my doctor suggested. Then I left it open for a couple of days and have been applying Soframycin for the last four days. Now there's this dried layer of the cream that's not coming off, and I'm having some very mild pains occasionally, but nothing too serious. How can I get this wound to heal completely?

dont worry that could be scab it would fall off try to peel it off while having bath if not leave it it will fall off on its own
