Asked By:PepperPotts in Detroit, MI

Had a tummy tuck and scar revision,removal of scar from hysterectomy,scar from pyloric stenosis as a baby that was horrible and causing me problems. Ps said 2 weeks ago out will heal from inside out and push the black part out and have apt in 2 weeks. .should I go back sooner?? I change the gauze a few times a day and shower 2 times a day. Black area almost comes off on gauze and it seems to be bleeding more on inside...have you seen one this bad? Do I need another surgery? ?
