Wound Management
Hello. I posted a while ago re my laparotomy wound breakdown and got a lot of good advice. After minimal progress I got a PICO vacuum dressing - a lot of reluctance which may have been cost rather than clinical criteria. The difference it has made is incredible. In 4 days the deficit has decreased

Pain in belly button scar from surgery.
I have a pain around my belly button scar from surgery. It feels like pinching or like a pin being put in and out. Anyone else experienced this and know what it is? I had my surgery 7 months ago so not sure why it is happening still.

Still waiting!
How long have you had to wait for vitrectomy surgery? My journey started in January with a referral to the hospital following a check with my optician. Fast forward to now and although I’ve had pre operative tests at Blackpool RVH on 29th August, I’m not able to find out where I am on the waiting

Why not give Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) as Adjunctive Therapy a Try?

bicuspid aortic valve replacement
I’ve seen talk of smaller
scars
, what is the deciding factor regarding the type of surgery offered ? have been advised by my cardiologist that a tissue valve would be more suited to my lifestyle due to risk of bleeding on warfarin, and advise on this would be welcome .

Acne and scars
I thought that if we could do that, we could then look at laser treatments to treat her acne
scars
. Unfortunately her skin is affecting her confidence. Thanks

Eugenol
I just happened to come across some information relating to cirrhosis. It is called eugenol and it comes from cloves. The NIH as recently as 2021 has done studies and as far as I can tell it is helping the liver to heal. I am not a scientist so the big scientific words are beyond me so I am not sure

After 3 months of circumsion started to hurt
I found out a cream that is suited for
scars
after surgery. But doesn't do anything. Did anyone had similar problem after so many months? It feels like I cut with no bleeding...

Endometriosis and other auto-immune conditions in women: the brain-uterus axis
There is a high frequency of posts that mention endometriosis here, so I am posting this article for all those people affected. The author posits a “brain-uterus axis” as a hypothesis that can explain why women suffer much more from auto-immune conditions than men do: https://amp.theguardian.com/society
