It has been 5 weeks and one of my rear ears is just not healing well, one looks fine, the sutures still ooze and it is still scabbing and sensitive. Is there anything I could do to help it along, would butterfly strips help ?

Answer: Photo will help Perhaps a friend can take a posterior photo of your ear area for an evaluation.It sounds like you are still open there and it is hard to judge how long closure will take without a photo.

Answer: Incision behind the ear Hi there,I am sorry that incision is still giving you trouble. I recommend you see your surgeon. Sometimes an incisions needs a little extra attention and cleaning the incision and applying ointment followed by adehesive strips can help it heal faster. If there is a small gap, your surgeon might be able to close it in the office.Hope this helps!
