When I said that the return visit to the doctor to get my wound cleaned and redressed hurt I was serious. It did. But it was nothing compared to the second time; which was excruciating. It had been about 30hrs since I had gotten it cleaned the day before and when she took the dressing off it was gross. Much more puss than the first time. This required an incredibly invasive swabbing to clean it out. She also had to push around the edge of the wound to get everything out. OOWWW!!
Today was my third visit to get the bandage redone and the wound cleaned. It still sucks when they clean it but it was tolerable today. Also, it is showing a little progress. It isn't very red anymore, just tender. The nice hole is still there and I may be imagining things but I think its getting smaller. Hopefully it really is getting better.... it still festers though ;)
I need to see pictures of this festering wound immediately. I really mean it. It sounds awesome!
