The Incision

Ladies,
Has anyone any advice about what type of care I should
give my soon to be abdominal incision? Has anyone used
Mederma? I was told sub-q sutures and steri-strips make for
a fine and inoffensive scar. I'm worried about the inside but
I'm worried about the outside too. My castle date is December 24.

Hi Sev

Please talk to your doctor about this -- mine said nothing but hydrogen peroxide for cleaning (no lotions because they can cause infection) ---

I can't believe you're getting a Hyst for a Christmas present!

We're here for you Sweetie!
