I am having Austin and tailors bunion surgery on my left foot (2.5 hr under general anesthesia). Taking off 8.5 weeks. Have decided to do breast revision (2 hr under general anesthesia) a months after the foot surgery. Now I just found out I have to have a leep procedure done on my cervix (1 hr under general). Is it safe to do all of these in 2 months? If I space it out 4 weeks each? I just can't afford to take any more time off from work.

The same pocket could be used. However, with this large a size change, the pocket is often made larger, a procedure we call a capsulotomy. This involves cutting the capsule tissue circumferentially so that the pocket enlarges.
We have seen skin allergies with the orange colored chloraprep. There is a clear one as well. Numerous other skin preps can be used as well. Be sure to mention this to your surgeon prior to your procedure. Good luck.
Hello, it is normal that firsts days are like this, but eventually after a week like you said, turns yellowish, still if you have be gone down to below 20cc per day, you should get a revision, might be a clot, i personally never leave drains.
