Hello I had an emergency appendectomy 18 days ago. The sterostrips were taken off early. The dr was notified. When I went for my follow up visit 12 days after my surgery the big insicion on my side had a thick scab. The dr said I could put neosporin and bandaids on it. I did , and the scab came off with the bandaid, It was gooey and gross. Now the skin is purple around the insicion. I do not know what to do... I was laid off and do not have insurance for the first time in my life, and this happens....
Hi, Need to visit the surgeon who operated on you. May need further medicines. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr B. Radhakrishnan. Nair, OBGYN
