About 2 weeks post op, the incisions in my arm started to open at my arm pit. My PS said don't worry it will heal by itself. Just wash it with soap and water, apply hydrogen peroxide, and apply alcohol, then dress it with a gauze and wear my compression sleeves. I do that daily. However, I feel like the wound is getting worse. It wasn't bleeding before, but now, at 4 weeks post op, it leaks blood when I remove the dressings to clean it up. Should I be worried? How long will it take to heal?
