I had a BL & BA in March 2017. I had wound dehiscence on the T incision part of both of my breast. I was told to do Dakins wet to dry gauze treatments. It's been 3 months & they're still open. Does this look infected? How much longer will it take to heal? Is there anything else I can do to speed the process up? Thanks!
