Dressings post operation.

Posted , 10 users are following.

Hi Folks

Very new to this forum,today,but I had my op just over 2 weeks ago. Had a period of rehab for about a week and feel good. But cant get a dressing to stay on. Called the district nurse out yesterday and she did not have the proper equipment. So she patched it up. I will ring somebody today about this. But have any other members experienced this problem? Would appreciate any feedback.

    Hi John

    The good folks on here have given you sound advice, my advice is the next stage when the staples come out, a cosmetic surgeon in the Middle East told me to buy Kelo- Cote to help with my scar after I had my TKR done in Riyardh,  a lot of people use Bio Oil but I can highly recommend Kelo - Cote.

    Patience, rest and sleep when you can, as we all suffer disturbed sleep, lots of fluids, massaging the knee, icing and doing your exercises all become part of our daily routine, keep going as it does all get better with time.
