Asked By:Sweetli2000 in Miami, FL

I'm on my 7th day post op my TT is incision is uncovered but I see most people have it covered, I called my drs office and they said his approach is an uncovered incision. yesterday incision felt in some parts a bit more than warm and a little painful. I called them again and they said its normal. I covered it when I took my first shower very well. Should I be worried? what is really the difference of covering it or not?
