Almost 5 weeks and not feeling it so far.this week I've been swollen most days I took pics from my back and I hope that's swelling I have fat coming out my sports bra o.O please let it be that I'm swollen. My scar isn't healed I'm cleaning it taking care of it daily it's starting to get old...I can't wait for a year to go by and all this is just my past...I see Dr soon I'm going back I need assurance. I'm still getting my massages she says I'm a little swollen so hopefully all this pain and sore cleaning is all worth it. I have also been eating right dieting no soda etc trying to avoid from being swollen ugh here are some pics.

You are looking good open areas in wounds are hard to deal with my boob and arms did the same but talk with dr cortes it may seem like a century but it's really early swelling last a long time keep doing what he says an eat as clean as you can

Oh diet is my number one right now I cut out all types Of food and drinks I've lost about 10pounds! And hopefully I'm keeping my fingers cross I also want to start working out but can't bc of these wounds don't want sweat getting in them. So I have to wait...longer. but thanks a lot I hope it goes well

NOT AGAIN!!
I'm already dealing with 2 sores and I find myself with another one now!! Ugh this is getting frustrating I'm going to have really bad scaring like I was praying not to get! It's finally hitting me and I'm finally jumping on to this emotional roller coaster..something I was dreading...btw not just any sore these are wounds they are deep holes that I have to try to close with butterfly band ads which aren't that great!! Getting desperate

Don't worry hun, I had one too on my incision line that just was not closing I mean it took it's time closing. However doll I just continue to put neosporine on it and cover with bandaid then allow it to heal without bandaid this will let the air hit it and form a scab and then you should be able to treat the whole incision..hopes this helps

Welcome to my world! I had one on my tt incision line, immediately beneath my belly button. Like Koreysmom, I began with TAO. I then transitioned over to Sulfar Silverdiazine. Healed perfectly! Currently using Ketacote silicone scar therapy. It will heal. It just takes time.

WELL I have 3 on my incision line so I'm getting annoyed it had closed up just fine. I'm putting that same cream on sulfar silver every day 2x a day one of the doctors I work for called it in. My sister brought me another antibiotic from her job that's a bit stronger but it looks like it's going to be a while b4 they start to close up. Thanks at least I'm not the only one going thru this.

Honestly, I had several, but the one I mentioned was the most bothersome. I'm beginning to wonder if these areas that are reopening are a result of the fluid pressure that has built up in the lower abdomen? I've noticed lately that this is becoming more common.

You just maybe right because where I had the hole was on the side I swelled the most.

Well I have 2 on my left side and 1 just opening up in the front but I think it's the sutures to be honest in all 3 of them there are sutures sticking out so I don't think it's letting it heal all the way! On the one in the front is a tide suture I think it has a knot and can't pull it out. So I left it alone and hopefully when I go see the doctor he can take them out or at least tell me for sure what to do to keep them close I'm a end up with a horrifying scar if not. My doctor told me to close them with a butterfly bandaid bc if it heals open that way my scar will he wide :(

He told me to do the same(butterfly bandage) for the sutures that came undone on my hip. However, it was ineffective. I asked if resuturing was an option? He said no. To do so wok cause it to get infected. So I dealt with a wide painful opening. I'm hoping that this silicone scar therapy will fade it well, or better yet make it dissappear. If not, and it bothers me, I will consider scar revision since it is in a obvious area of my hip.
