CELLULITIS AS A POST-OP COMPLICATON OF HYSTERECTOMY

DEBBIE

Message 1 of 2 Next



I HAD A TOTAL ABDOMINAL HYSTERECTOMY ON 6/30/00 AND NOW HAVE AN INFECTION OF MY INCISION THAT HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED AS CELLULITIS. I HAVE TO GO BACK AND FORTH TO THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE EVERY OTHER DAY TO HAVE THE INCISION (WHICH IS NOW OPEN ABOUT 2") DRAINED AND PACKED. THE AMOUNT OF FLUID THAT COMES OUT OF THE INCISION IS INCREDIBLE. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE I HAVE GOTTEN MIXED MESSAGES FROM THE VARIOUS DOCTORS IN THE GROUP PRACTICE ABOUT THE TREATMENT OF THIS CONDITION. SOME FEEL IT CAN CLOSE SOON, OTHERS PREDICT WEEKS OF THIS ROUTINE CONTINUING. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY ORAL ANTIBIOTICS AND THIS HAS ME VERY CONFUSED. HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS POST-OP COMPLICATION?
