for my open hernia surgery, my surgeons office told me it was fine to take a shower and take the dressing off and keep it off after two days. Just need to keep it dry and clean.

With my TKR, the dressing was taken off when I got home after surgery by my PT so the ice machine could cool the knee. A day after my TKR, I wrapped my knee up with saran wrap and showered. I needed to get that medicine smell off me.

I recently had foot surgery. The dressing started coming off before I even got home. Within a few days, it was hurting even more. After a week, I removed the dressing and my incision was bright red and very painful. With swelling. Went back in to see the surgeon, they spent their time berating me for removing the dressing a week too early. I had meticulously cleaned my foot and put on brand new dressings. I knew it was infected. They didn't want to admit it. The surgeon told me it was not infected. Bright red, with streaks coming out of it, and blisters. I asked for an antibiotic, and then I was berated again and said if it makes me happy he'll give me one. It's been several days, it's starting to subside. I am worried it won't be enough. I have had numerous surgeries in the past, One of them started a slight infection and that surgeon was very concerned. He prescribed two antibiotics which took care of it. This is way worse than that. I am absolutely appalled by this surgeon's behavior. I know if I hadn't intervened myself, I would probably be in the hospital now with sepsis.

I had a meniscus tear surgery few days ago and had to have a brace and scared because the leg has gotten very skinny to the point where I can see the outline of my bones should I be worried or is that normal

W. says:

Danielle Shay says:

You 2 are so cute! I wish you were my surgeons. I'm having a complete knee replacement in about 2 weeks and I'm very scared. Afraid of the pain. However I've been in pain for years, walk with a cane or walker. I have a high pain tolerance so hope that helps. Thanks for all the info. (Yes, Canada is cold, and I live in a small village and have to fly to get to my hospital. Hope I won't have trouble getting home.)
