Unless you want it to take even more time to heal... then yes.

[He’s added on time because of the strain he put on it today...]

I’m... not sure what else you were expecting. Waver didn’t exactly stab you lightly... the wounds were deep enough that you couldn’t walk. I... honestly cannot stress how lucky you were he didn’t stab the femoral artery. If he stabbed that then you would have bled out in minutes

[Poe just... sighs deeply. He can’t believe he has to explain exactly all of this...

Normally you should only have about a week left at this point... but because of all the strain you keep putting on it.. it’s not as healed as it should be. If you want a more optimistic outlook... than a week and a half... but that would require you taking better care of your leg than you’ve apparently been doing so far. If you aren’t more careful and actually tear the stitches... you’re risking the chance of an infection.

In the best case scenario the nurse here can try and treat it with antibiotics. If that works then the wound will heal... albeit far slower than the two week maximum I said earlier ... worst case... well....

[He looks at Gogol’s leg with mild concern. He... doesn’t think it will get to the worst case scenario... but he’s pretty sure it’s important to beat in the fact that Gogol doesn’t want to risk an infection.]

The infection could become serious and not go away.... and tissue will start to die. l... I’m... not exactly keen to see if they have the necessary medical equipment to preform an amputation.

[He gives that a few moments to sink in.]

I’m not trying to ruin your fun... I’m trying to make sure you don’t open the door to worse possibilities... because that is what friends do... I um... I think.

[He hopes Gogol realizes that it’d have been in the best interest of the group if he said nothing and let Gogol continue to slow down the healing of his leg and thus remain slightly less dangerous than he’d be at full mobility. But he’s a friend he that actually cares about so....].
