How long does it usually take for a skinned leg to heal?

Busted legs usually take about 5 to 15 days to heal. The healing time is related to the patient’s physical condition, the extent and depth of the skin break and whether there is infection. If the patient’s leg is slightly broken, the wound is small and superficial, and no infection usually heals in 5-7 days; if the patient’s leg is seriously broken, the wound is large, and the patient’s metabolism is poor, it usually takes about 10-15 days to heal. If the broken skin on the leg is not properly treated, which leads to local infection, resulting in pus, redness, swelling, pain and other conditions in the broken area, it will inevitably lead to delayed healing. Therefore, it is necessary to disinfect, clean, bandage, and change medication regularly under the guidance of a doctor, and take antibiotics such as amoxicillin to prevent infection and promote recovery.
