It's been know 24 days after BR/Lift surgery and the open wounds are not healing. They are not infected and I've been keeping them cover with sterile gauze and antibiotic ointment. Should I try something different? Maybe the bra and keeping them cover all the time is not helping? My PS suggest to cure them every two days and not every day. I heard about Duoderm (FDA Approved) but I don't know if it's safe to try them as you have to leave the patch on for several days.
