Odor from incision?

Question

I’m calling doc tomorrow, but I’m wondering if anyone has had an odor from their incision? It smells almost like chafing. No discharge and the incision itself looks really good 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

I did with mine and doctor said it was normal smell from the drainage of the incision and to just keep it clean. Which I have and I also blow dry it a few times a day to keep it dry and not sweaty. But this is the first time I had staples and not stitches and also a silver dressing over it so idk if that made a difference. But it’s been a week since my appt and the smell isn’t as noticeable and it’s def not infected...it looks really good.

Answer

I did with mine. My doctor said the surface was just slightly infected and just told me to make sure I'm keeping it really clean and it got better on it's own
