Another Visit to the Wound Care Doctor

I had my weekly appointment with the wound care specialist today. Nothing new & that's good. The open spots on the incision are continuing to heal & show no signs of infection. He debraded the "wounds" which means he scraped out the dead skin cells and any discharge from the wounds. Thankfully they deaden the wounds so there is no pain. Connie is doing a great job of cleaning and dressing the wounds daily. Prognosis hasn't changed so I will continue the weekly visits for the next few weeks until healed..... On the other hand, the pain is back under control by going back to the hydrochodone based pain meds. So I'm back to my routine living in my recliner.
