Old Surgery Wound Reopened After Sneezing and Coughing

More than 2 years after my operation and have been fitted with a Ostemy bag my old surgery wound has opened again. Most likely after a few good coughing spells. Had the Medical Nursed visiting me every 2 days until lthe wound closed again. And once more after a good sneez it opened up again. A real pain as it takes lots of bandaged and patience to completely heal again
After all that time back to the Surgeon again!! Opa Ray.

opa ray, i didnt think it possible for wound to open again!
how awful for you!it seems us (mates) have problem after problem! take care,x

Had the nurse back today and inspected the re-opened wound. Looks not too bad, cleaned and re bandaged again and she will come back Saturday. Then every 2 dn day after until the wound is closed again. What would we do without the "Angels of Mercy"!! I will never complain about our Medical System!!  Opa Ray

Sounds like you need someone who will help you stop coughing and sneezing!!  Maybe make a sign:  No Coughing, No Sneezing, No Laughing

  I'm glad you have a wound care nurse who can help you.  Good luck.

This morning the the nurse will come hopefully for the last time as the wound is healing and closed once again. Now I have to be very careful,
