Yoda 0 Posted April 24, 2006 :bounce: whooo hoooooo *doin' the Happy Snoopy Dance* I had a shower and it felt sooooo good to get that dressing & tape off!!! I"m impressed: the incisions actually look marvelous...I just have two bad "blistery" spots (not on the incisions) that were caused by the tape...they are quite nasty and are weeping a bit; but I can handle that as long as the incisions are good! So far, so good! If y'all notice a shortage on tape...it's cause it's all in my garbage can; I swear they used a whole roll on me!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S@ssen@ch 745 Posted April 24, 2006 Yoda, I'm so glad you're comfortable again.:clap2: Those blistery areas sound like you were allergic to the tape. Remember it for any future procedures. Nasty stuff. Take good care of those weepy areas, I've heard of people actually scarring from those. Keep them clean and dry. If they start to look infected, call your doc right away.

Yoda 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Thanks Dawn...will do! I've put polytopic on them and I have a bandaid on them to keep them from accidently rubbing. They are stinging though. But, I'll keep a watchful eye. Tks again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Try to use paper tape and a gauze pad- it might be better. Good healing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
