Well I've been doing the right things with my face, which is good to know. The Dr prescribed me some antibiotics so it doesn't get infected, and I made the nurse laugh with my home made wound pads. I'd bought some from the chemist but they just weren't absorbent enough. So I thought, what if I cut up a nighttime incontinence pad and sealed the edges with wide adherence bandage tape? Works a treat, is comfortable and has a stay-dry cover.
A woman's mastery can not be contained! Many years ago my old dog had bone cancer at the top of her eye socket area. She was very well cared for but occasionally she would develop a weepy wound. A party liner stuck to a cute bandana was the easiest way to manage it. My vet was in hysterics when he first saw it.
Lol, "panty liner bandana" might just have to go on my Future Usernames list!
hope you feel better soon 😘
