My vet told me the hard nodule around my dogs incision is from the immune response to the sutures and it will resolve on its own. If your dog has swelling near the incision, then that is a seroma. You can Google that for a good explanation.

Can I use Bactine spray on my dog's incision after surgery?

You could, but it's probably not the best idea. The surgical site should be kept clean until the sutures come out, but the incision should be sealed when the animal is recovered from anesthesia. Depending on what is in the Bactine spray, there may be drugs that inhibit the healing process, which may make it take longer for the incision to heal.

Where does a surgeon cut to insert breast implants?

The three common incision sites are under the arm (transaxillary), around the nipple (periareolar), or within the breast fold (inframammary). * Transaxillary � This incision is less concealed than periareolar but associated with less difficulty than the periareolar incision site when breast feeding. * Periareolar � This incision is most concealed but is associated with a higher likelihood of inability to successfully breast feed, as compared to the other incision sites. * Inframammary � This incision is less concealed than periareolar but associated with less difficulty with breast feeding than the periareolar incision site. The most popular incision is beneath the breast. The armpit and belly-button incisions are further away from the operative site and as a result less accurate. Many women are less inclined to do the periareolar incision due to concerns with nipple sensitivity and problems with breast feeding.


You have had a C-section 4 years ago and now when you stretch you sometimes get a pain were the incision was what would that be?

Incision scar tissue is always sensitive, and the incision site for a C-section is fairly long. Keep in mind that the pain isn't just from the incision scar, it's from the incision all the way through the tissue and the Uterus as well. It takes a long time for deep tissue to heal, and in many cases there's always some residual pain, even years later. Most of the incision areas I have from many surgeries (I have a 12" scar on my back that runs from the middle of my back to the base of my spine) all have some degree of pain, even as long as 12 years later. With time, stretching and exercise, it'll probably get less painful, but it probably won't go away completely. 4 years isn't really that long in medical healing terms, and healing depends on your own nutrition and activity.

Why is blood from an arthroscope knee surgery after 4 days is still coming out of the incision?

Four days post op you should not have any discharge from the incisions. I recommend contacting your physician. Depending on the amount of activity and swelling you may still be tender and have some redness, but the incision should be healing closed. If you have been over doing it, it may have opened the incision and caused bleeding but that should should not be a large amount. Signs and symptoms of infections are fever, swelling, redness, pain at incision site and possibly a foul smell, pus instead of blood and increased tenderness to the touch. If you are having any of these signs please call your physican as soon as possible.
