A member asked:
Can you tell me how to shower after knee surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Did your surgeon: give you instructions on how to take bath? I would avoid taking shower until you get clear instructions from them. You could in meantime do a sponge bath until you hear from them and keep the knee dry and don't wash it.
