You may need a different antibiotic or a longer course. Diet also plays a massive role when it comes to wound healing; keep hydrated, protein, etc.
If the wound isn't infected, by all means, give it a clean with saline wash out, and steristrip it back up, if it is infected, this is where it sounds ridiculous; do not steristrip.
