How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Hole under right arm, Bacatracin and gauze on it. New, smallet compression sleeves came today. They feel great.
3 weeks post op
Yesterday, the hot red skin was on both arms. Called Doc, had an appt. for this morning. Woke up this morning and the red was better, but my drain (which is still in and draining 40ml a day) started to hiss and my bulb wouldn't stay vacuum packed. No fever.
Saw Doc, keeping me on the Ceftin as he feels it's helping, red and hot is gone...just red. Put bacatracin in my arm pit area (which is not an infection, but some weird opening), and he is not worried about it. I do have a small round wound (under a scar) that I thought nothing of, he says if it opens or has puss he wants to culture it-uuggghhh. Next appt. is Monday, hoping to get drain out then. I will try and get pics of these problem areas. Still wearing compression garment.

Had a post op visit with PS today. Right side drain still in (drainIng 30ml in 24 hour period). Also might have a possible under the skin infection (area is hot and red). PS gave me Ceftin antibiotic for possible infection and go back in one week for possible drain removal. Arms still hurt, arm pits really hurt. Still have limited mobility. I am heading back to work tomorrow.
