At some point these appointments will have to stop being quite as chaotic as they are now, won’t they?
Each week I have the dressing on my foot removed, the suture site cleaned with some kind of disinfectant whose name I can not quite remember, and then new dressing is placed on my foot. I’ve had to go to the local hospital to get dressing put on my foot and leg twice now because the dressing that is put on my foot by the podiatrist’s office manages to come undone to the point where the suture site is no longer covered… and I really do not want this to get infected at any point. According to every nurse that has done a dressing change, the wound is healing well and shows no sign of infection, but I can’t help but continue to worry.
If everything continues to go well I may have the sutures removed soon and will be almost done with this!
