I'm surprised this is not the standard for any surgery involving a significant incision. In my country it's been the standard for instance for all three of my cervical spine surgeries, including the one I just had.
At the 7-10 day mark I must go to my normal GP who performs wound review and checks for signs of infection or other anomaly.
- Retric 1y agoIt was standard to have a follow up. He called me in early, the same day they called. And he looked to it himself rather than having a GP do so.
- theshackleford 1y agoOh ok that makes sense, for a second it just sounded like it would have went I caught otherwise and I began wondering if maybe this wasn’t as much of a standard as I thought it was.
