Asked By:rebelfinlay in France, FR

II am 3 weeks post operation yesterday. I had a breast reduction and now I have open wounds. My stitches were taken out on the 10th day. I have sent pics to my surgeon but he insists it isn't an infection and that I should remain doing as I am. know my body well enough to know something isn't ok. What should I do? Do I cover them back up whilst healing or let them breathe?
