I had a FUT hairtransplant, I was give an anti-inflammatory injection immediately after surgery and was instructed to take 4 pills of Prednisone, 5 mg. starting the day after for 6 days, I mistakenly took one pill and continued this for three days, I just noticed that I was supposed to take 4 pills but I dont have any swelling until now, should I continue taking one pill or should I take 4 as prescribed, would this affect my newly transplanted hair?
