three weeks post op
So after popping stitches the doc cleaned what he said was fibrib (the white stuff in the hole on arm pit right arm) with hydrogen peroxide and neosporin with a band aid. The hole got bigger which i was told would happen and i got blisters from the band aid adhesive (Murphy's law). He also cut off a few stitches to help alleviate some agitation. Unfortunately some still havent dissolved and we'll address next visit.
before and after pics
Apparently a few stitches popped on the right arm and those are the pics you will see. The after photos are about 10 to 11 days post-op.
1 week post op
It has been one week, I need to post pictures but I think i'm just a lil scared to look at my arm for too long. The surgery was a week ago and my fiancee took great care of me. i live in RR so after getting released from the surgery center on Spurs Ln (a good sign right there) we went bk to the hotel. It was the perfect hotel for recovery, had a full kitchen with stove and pots and pans and fridge, micro, living room, etc. I was asleep off and on, kinda nauseated but had soup and pudding , drank from straws to keep hydrated. I followed the instructions. Lots of serosanguinous drainage but he removed the bandages and it needless to say it continued to drain... Word to the wise, wear dark button up clothing or something you dont mind getting dirty. It got stuck to my arm, not bad but just a lil uncomfortable. I have a 1 week post op appt tomorrow where I will get my compression garments and a week after that I believe I will start using the Embrace Scar Therapy, if not that will be 2 weeks from now.
My armpits hurt the most. The inside of my forearms feel severely bruised, but there's no marks, just hurts severely to even push up the sleeves of my shirt. where the incisions are feels tingly and i can tell there is going to be loss of sensation where we discussed. Again, its only week one and we'll see how things progress. I am optimistic!
