Gross photo alert do you think this wound is healing ?

[Lardlizard]

What do you think

Yes. I would say so. It looks quite dry. You really need to before & after photo though to tell properly.

It is, yes - you can see where the edges are starting to draw in.

it’s itching but I guess that’s a good sign of healing? Not particularly painful
Just wary of infections

i'd say so too....a little redness around and about but it doesn't look angry

I'd keep it clean, and let the air get at it....I believe that is old fashioned though, it's all about those fancy hydrocolloid plasters these days :o

...maybe moisturise the edges if it's scratchy, but only with something really plain and don't make it angry!

I think it is, too. Looks bloody deep, though. Ouch!

Bit closer up

Yes it looks to be healing. Itching is normal.

Looks like a nasty cut though!

Yes it did bleed a lot !

Thanks for your thoughts, will just keep an eye on it then

Yes it looks like it is. Are they stitch marks at the top?

It looks at the moment as though it might open if knocked. Can you protect it? How old is it?

It was stiched yes, one of them burst
It is covered with a dressing

Yes, it does look as though it's healing. Is the area hot to the touch? I'd be inclined to keep a light dressing on it during the day, just to protect it against knocks.

Not hot to the touch

That looks really healthy - must be the lizardy regeneration :)

Good that it isn't feeling hot.
