When changing and sticking Primapore, can mom take a shower?
Hello, I have a question I ordered from the online pharmacy dressing Primapore - for mom who is after lung cancer surgery the same was stuck on her on the wound control in the thoracic surgery clinic and recommendation every 2 days to change the dressing to dry. When changing and sticking Primapore, can mom take a shower? whether she should wait for the stitches to be removed is still almost two weeks.. thank you in advance, greetings

As a rule, at least for the first few days after the operation, you can not soak the wound. Bathing is inadvisable, it is best to avoid it at least until the inspection. The shower can be taken after a certain time after the procedure, which should be specified in the wound care plan or in the information obtained at discharge from the doctor. After minor procedures, this time is usually 24-48 hours, but with more serious operations it can be longer - e.g. up to 5 days after the procedure. In the case of deep thoracic surgery, this longer time should rather be taken into account, but for detailed information it is best to turn to the thoracosurgery clinic with which the mother has contact. The place of sewing should be gently dried, e.g. with a paper towel. This does not mean that you can not wash, wipe or wash other parts of the body during this time, bypassing the place of sewing.
