post op scars

[flower 2]

Did anyone put any thing on their scars to help them heal better after surgery I just was interested and also can anyone see their port of do they have to feel for it I really don't want my port sticking out

[the best me 6]

flower, I just put anti-biotic ointment on them, still do at 8 weeks. They are starting to raise up, so I'm thinking it's time for some Mederma to help them flatten out. Next time I'm at Wal-Mart, I plan to look for the Mederma bandaids.

I can feel my port if I press on it. It doesn't poke out visibly. Some poeple do have pokey ports when they lose weight, but I don't think it's abnormal looking, really. Maybe those folks will post.
