This doesn't look right to me ... (vivid image)

The other two incision sites are clean .. this one is SO sore, I just don't know what to do with myself. Any ideas?
Wwent to see the Pharmacist and he didn't seem to think it was infected and just advised anti histamine tablets for the itching - not cream as it's still healing.

I'm not in the medical field but it doesn't look good to me either. Have you been rubbing it because of the itching? My itching was so bad my Dr had to give me a prescription Med to help control the itching. Hope you feel better soon.

Omg!!!

OMG--that looks like it is infected. Have you gone back to the doctor yet? Also the back looks like there is an indentation in it. It doesn't come together. What happened??? I think I would seek medical advice--doesn't look good at all. Good luck :grouphug:

Well Karen
 

This graphic evidence does not mimic any of my forays into the OR with one exception, the infected one at the time of Trial Surgery before implant. Yours does not appear to be oozing, but is definitely red irritated looking site.

Only thing I can imagine is Tootle back to the doc and ask "What gives here, and why does it still hurt so?"

Am waiting on a call from the doc.. I've had two incidents of complete paralysis in both legs and tingling in my upper arms .. She's calling the neuro surgeons to see what to do.

Hi Saffy
 

The wound looks irratated. Itching usually is a sign of healing. However in your case, this red looking area doesn't look good to me eithor. There should be a reduction of the redness as you heal, not an increase. If this seems to be getting worse, or going in the wrong directon, have it looked at so you can have ease of mind. A quick trip to the surgeon wouldn't be a bad idea, or a phone call to the nurse, just to be on the safe side. ginnie

Does look like inflammation. I have a body that is very slow to heal so for me seeing something this red has me think of inflammation right off the bat. My dr. told me an incision can become redder as it heals as there's more blood being sent to the area in order to help it heal. But agree with all...doctor involvement is a must!

Pain + redness = infection, from what I've been taught :Clever: but Fiona's feedback makes sense too.
Is there something you can put on this? Me too vote 'ask doctor pronto'

Emergency Room Now
 

Multiple total paralysis episodes, tingling in upper extremities = AMBULANCE TO HOSPITAL. The only total bilateral lower extremity paralysis I have experienced has been purposeful self induced management of pain spikes by OVER STIMULATING with the unit. Doc was wholly concerned when I reported this to him!!!! He warned me there are no white papers known, no revelations from manufacturers regarding the over stim effect and possible permanent damage.

I was Warned to be of great care regarding this issue.

You, dear Karen have not reported what I just wrote. Instead, you are experiencing spontaneity of this occurrence.

I wrote the word ambulance for a reason.

Please,

Go,

Mark56:hug: and worried half way around the globe!!
