her knee now

It is almost a month after Ashley’s minor surgery on the knee.  She had her knee in bandaged for more than 3 weeks and last Monday, the surgeon said I can finally take the bandage off.  The wound has dried up.

Taken last week.  the area around the wound was shiny because I just put some Bactroban cream on it.

This was taken a while ago.  The scab fell off yesterday.  It is healing ok but would probably take a while before the scar goes away.

mederma

The doctor prescribed this –  Mederma , a soothing topical gel for scars.  It is to be applied twice a day for the first 3 months and once a day for the following 3 months.

Ashley is not in pain anymore but she is still quite conscious of the scar.  She does not like me to wet it when she’s in the shower and asked to wear skirts or long pants whenever we go out.  She said she doesn’t like anyone looking at her knee 😛
