A member asked:
Day 4 after a anterior partial fundoplication. can a large cough have undone the stitches . just one cough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wound healing: On day 4, there is usually scar tissue repair, but any tension or pulling around the edges of the wound may delay healing. A one time cough may have minimal affect, but observe closely for changes.
