A member asked:
Been more than 4 weeks since removal and bone graft, would it generally be okay to touch the surgical site now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Touchy-Feely.: I have to ask, where is the site(s) and what does the wound(s) look like? The wound should be pretty well healed after 4 weeks but without that assessment, one cannot truthfully say. the best thing would be to ask the surgeon.
