I had a thigh lift approx 5 weeks ago and a week later, I had wound dehiscence. It’s got bigger despite continued care from my surgeon. It is being treated with inadine dressings changed daily. It is undermining in every direction despite other small areas which also opened, granulating and epithelialising. I feel like I make one step forward and 10 steps back. At this rate I feel it’s goijg to be open at Christmas! Why is it getting bigger? There is no infection. What am I doing wrong?
