Wound Care.........What should I use?
My belly button wound is red and itchy........... I first put on triple antibiotic oinment but I have been wearing a thin tshirt under my abdominal binder and wonder if its probably the start of a yeast infection. I know ya'll aren't doctors but would you use triple antibiotic or an antifungal like miconozole? thanks

The itching is supposed to be a good sign, means we are healing, but I know how horrible it can be. That 12 inch scar on my back drives me nuts sometimes and I can't scratch it because it's so tender. When the nurse comes and changes my dressing everyday, I make him rub on the tape a few extra times, just for some relief.
I am with Monica tho, call the surgeon, make sure you are suppose to be putting things on your new scar.
