I have an opening that keeps getting a scab over it. Doc says to put antibiotic ointment 2 times a day. It has not changed in 2 weeks since it opened besides getting a scab that will come off then scab again. Is there something more I can do? I am 4wpo it opened at 2wpo
I had an abcess from a spitting stich in the past and was able to remove the knot myself with tweezers. I attempted to do this on another stitch that I thought was working its way out. Bad idea. I wasn't able to find or remove it. Now I have a hole. I'm afraid I left myself worse off. If I leave it alone, will it heal normally? I alternate letting it breathe and covering it with bandage and antibiotic ointment. I am upset that I have done this. Please advise. My surgeon is across the country
My doctor said it's uncommon for this to happen at 6 weeks. I was prescribed meds and an ointment but I'm very concerned about this. Has anyone seen this before? What are some possible causes of a yeast infection along the incision line?
What is a good regimen for time per day to wear strips vs creams for scar healing, specifically for areolar benelli lift scars? (Also for inframammery scars too). I am getting my stitches removed in 2 days. When should I start this regimen? Thank you
