Asked By:2015_FTT in Channel Islands

Do i have skin necrosis? The wound care I am receiving is Inadine on the wound and plasters? How long after suture removal may the wound go back to normal? Minor fresh blood appearnace is present. Unfortunately the surgery was performed in another country as I live on a small island, Guernsey (UK) so not a simple trip to see the surgeon. Non smoker / drinker / eat well and excercise
