How long for multiple soaks daily

Postby Jojo1 » 25 Nov 2011, 18:11

Quick quedtion. How long after the LIS shoul I be doing the 2-4 soaks daily? I plan to always do one after each bm, but wondered about the extra ones. Thanks, all.

Just go with what you feel you need, I was having 2-3 per day as long as I had pain, you'll know when the time is right for stopping

Thanks. I haven't had any pain, per se, since the LIS. Still have a small amount of drainage. Not enough to cause problems, but ii do still put gauze to guard against moisture.
The last three days, I have noticed an odd smell when I clean. Nit strong st all but noticeable. I also notice a dull pain when I touch an area a little outside from where the tissure is. I wa scared of a possible fistula, but have none of the symptoms. The timing coincides eith when I started using a little A&D once daily. Ive stopped that and am watching closely. See my crs on 12/8 for follow up.
