Today, I had the scar in my mouth (where pus accumulates) cleaned 3 times instead of 2 :]

And, one week ago, doctors "opened" skin close to my left ear in order to remove pus, because it is linked with mouth's inside.
As everything is now clean around my ear, they decided to close skin by using negative pressure wound therapy. It looks like the following device :

(thank you wikipedia)
Tube is connected between my scar and this device, and negative pressure (like vacuum cleaner, but very very very very low) is applied to the scar so that it can close.
Around one week is required until I can get rid of this device.

Too bad I can't use the same technology to close scar in my mouth
