Patient's question:
The right ovarian cyst is 8 centimeters. Surgery was performed on November 1st, and the wound was vertical. The stitches were removed on the 8th. The wound has already formed scabs, and some of the scabs have started to peel. When touching the wound, it can be clearly felt that there is a hard lump underneath. Can I take a bath today?Doctor's answer:
The described condition may be treated with traditional open abdominal surgery for ovarian cyst removal. If the incision heals well and there is no separation after suture removal, and it has been five days since the sutures were removed, it may be considered to take a bath, which will not significantly interfere with the incision. Additionally, cold compresses or heat therapy can be applied to the incision area.There are many treatment methods for ovarian cysts, but since the symptoms of patients differ, the chosen treatment methods will also vary. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
