What should be done if skin necrosis occurs after minimally invasive surgery for axillary osmidrosis?

Patient's question:

Doctor. I have had axillary osmidrosis since I was a child. Now that I've grown up, I've become more and more concerned about my appearance, so I had a minimally invasive surgery at the hospital to treat the osmidrosis. But I've noticed that the skin has died after the minimally invasive surgery. Hello, what is this situation? Is the surgery successful?

Doctor's answer:

Consider the possibility of skin necrosis reappearing due to inadequate post-surgical anti-inflammatory and conditioning measures. It is recommended to consult a hospital's surgical department for a follow-up examination as soon as possible. After thorough examination, anti-inflammatory treatments and other measures should be adopted. It is not necessarily a sign of successful surgery; rather, it may be closely related to inadequate anti-inflammatory treatment after the surgery. Avoid contact with water, maintain a light diet, and refrain from consuming spicy, irritating, and other stimulating foods.
