: : : : not a very good picture but enough to see the incision. lost my ice pump today but doc is submitting to w/c to get one. 4 inch drainage tube removed today, stitches come out next monday...warning if you get sick or offended by ugly pictures, please don't open the link....melani

: : : Hi Melani,
: : : I didn't think it looked too bad actually! Lots of stitches though...my goodness. But your hand looks good, nice color and not too swollen, musta been that "magic" pump! I wish you continued success...
: : : Kitty

: : that pump was the magic, no swelling so far. now that i don't have it, i hope the swelling stays down...melani

: Just be REALLY careful with it...looks like if you bumped it that would be a real "oucher"! When do your stitches come out, and how has it been feeling?
: Kitty

it hurts like heck right now. the doctor pulled the drainage tube out (too much light on my palm in picture to see where the tube came out). husband said it was 4 inches long. i didn't look. the stitches come out next monday. the doctor wrapped it back up again to soften my clumsiness...thanks for being here...melani
