W now has 5 openings 4 along the abdomen incision and 1 just above the penis. The original opening which was only a couple of millimetres in size is now 2.5cm by 3.7cm! They are very sore and are causing him great discomfort. The nurse still comes in on a daily basis to dress them each day. Yesterday she was not happy as they had deteriorated over the weekend so W had to go to see the Dr today. S was able to take the day off and take him, the Dr is not concerned and said they will heal in their own time. The internal stitches are now showing. W has sent the pics direct to the surgeon to get his opinion. Seems a very long healing process and W is becoming more depressed.
The hole to the left is the original opening where the fluid made its escape! Another opening to the right of that has appeared, you can see the internal stitches.
