Hi...
7am this morning has the dressing changed. it had been a really bad weekend for dressings all the way back from thursday. tubigrip had pushed the dressing down and all the fucibet out of the wound. also there were pressure wounds and a nasty blister under one of the bigger pieces of micropore. so today we decided that less was more so the leg did not have a bulge where there would is. today was cooler too so the leg wasnt so hot and everything seemed to stay in place. so this morning was the routine of prontosan soak, wash and grease the lower leg. fucibet cream, 2x jelonet, xupad, k-band and double tubigrip. a duoderm pad dressing was put on the blister to help it heal and give a barrier between skin and tubigrip.
on a sorer note... i was washing in the bathroom this morning as i am off showers again and put my foot up on the edge of the bath to dry myself, missed and kicked the edge of the bath. you can see the result below. during the day the toe has got more painful, but its only a bad bruise and it will go in a few days. i am wearing a bag of frozen peas on it at the moment!
have a good evening
