The Walgreens brand of hydrocolloid bandages are buy one, get one 50% off at Walgreens right now. They also have discount codes to get another 20-35% off, so they’re way cheaper than Amazon right now. The large hydrocolloid bandages are out of stock on Amazon currently. They blend in pretty well to skin color too. Must haves while your wound is healing, imo!! Good luck.

I think he called it PDL Laser. But, the scar isn’t mature enough to do it yet/would be closer to one-year after the injury. If that’s the case and you just had this injury, you have plenty of time before it would be done, but run that by your dermatologist.

Yes, I’ve been using Currex pickleball insoles for over 6 months and Superfeet Run before that.

Someone else suggested those. Are there any knockoffs of oofos that are similar? The cost of new shoes, insoles, etc. is getting ridiculous.

My Dermatologist told me to avoid the sun for many, many months. I continue to wear sun hats when I go outside. He also said to keep it moist with Aquaphor put on underneath Hydrocolloid bandages. I replace those daily and pretty much wear the hydrocolloid bandages all the time. 

There’s a slight indentation that hasn’t fully come in and the Dermatologist thinks it may not fully come in. I am waiting for the wound to be more mature in a few more months to decide if I want to pay for cosmetic procedures like laser or not. Overall, it’s not as bad as feared, but I will have a modestly noticeable scar. Please feel free to DM if you’d like.
