    Hi girls,

    I had my strapping off a week ago, but my incisions hadn’t healed fully so I had to go back to the clinic yesterday to have them checked again. I now have plasters rather than that steristrip stuff, but my incisions STILL haven’t healed so I’m going to the clinic on Monday for the 3rd time post op. Had anyone else been like this? I’m a bit worried that I’m not healing. Also means I still can’t shower 2 weeks post op. I’m not in pain so it’s frustrating as the clinic is 2 hours from where I live xx

    Oh god. Did they say why? My nurse didn’t really explain why, just said to have plenty of protein to help
