To my understanding the skin is cut on one side of knee, flapped over and the inside incisions are in a curve on the opposite side. This overlap is supposed to cut down on bleeding and the possibility of infections.

I was advised by the nurse to start using it after the clips were removed as it was fully "healed and sealed"! You can't put anything on it or get into any swimming pools etc until it has healed or you'll be in big trouble bug wise! I remember the physio telling me to give the knee a good massage (made me cringe but you get over it-I just didn't look!) with the oil after washing. It really did help and I still invest in pot as although it's pricey you don't need much so it lasts for ages! Tesco, Boots,Superdrug, Lloyds all sell it but watch out for offers! I dare say there are alternative oils that members might recommend but that's my indulgence!👍
