Hello Community, I am 28 M from Dubai and recently have my hair transplanted by FUT method ( 4000 Grafts ) Its been almost a week now but I am feeling pain in my donor area. I called my surgeon and he advised me put some pyodine solution as it will help to dissolve Sutures and also with pain. How long does it take to get rid of the pain from donor area or its normal ?
