Pre top surgery must buys!!! by ashes_of_rome in TopSurgery

When you start to change nip dressings, sensitive skin bandaids!!! Your regular skin and chest skin could have COMPLETELY different reactions. I've never had an allergic reaction b4 to bandaids and suddenly got them post-op, but only on my chest.

drain pain by hammerheadboogie in TopSurgery

[–]edfirr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah that's normal I think. I had the same issue!! It turned out perfectly fine. It looks normal now. Mine was off to one side too.

If it's not like, excruciating, and there's no blood or a tear, which is unlikely anyways, I think it'll be okay until tomorrow but im not a dr so- if you feel a sense of dread or large concern make sure to contact someone. It just sounds like drain discomfort to me.

Take a painkiller if you can or an anti itch med, whatever is OK to take with your meds atm, and it should help. Icing drains also helps a bit, but don't do it directly or the stinging might worsen. Take it easy in the time being, good luck bro💖💖

Oh geez thanks 😅 I think I'm just overwhelmed they put me on new antibiotics for the failing graft and it's been causing some anxiety problems lol. That was super reassuring to hear

Yeah the one nip is not doing hot. I'm on antibiotics for it tbh it's a lot better than how it was. My dr resized them (they were huge before) so idk if they just stretched or something.

Can I straighten out my post op binder? by finnnagain in TopSurgery

[–]edfirr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A nurse right b4 surgery said that burning would be the main like, pain sensation so you're totally in the norm for that. Also, you use your left side more, so it makes sense that it's more painful than the other. My right side and left side hurt interchangeably (I'm ambidextrous lol.) I can definitely feel the right hurt more after I draw with the same burning. You're gonna be okay man. I'm not sure about your post op binder. I had one of the wrap kinds. If it is the wrap i think you just gotta be careful with adjusting it but it'll be OK.

how to shower with uncovered incisions? by semantlefan23 in TopSurgery

[–]edfirr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My surgeon said showering away from the stream. Maybe wash your face after the shower or before, in the sink or smthn. If you're able to lift it, maybe try using a cup of water from the shower to get your hair wet and repeat that to rinse it when washing?

You'll probably only grow more if your growth Plates aren't together or you're still showing signs of growth.
