Most visits to this doctor’s office I’ve only been seen by an NP. However, the visit was scheduled a little differently this week because the plastic surgeon himself wanted to take a look at how my leg was healing. The skin graft didn’t take as well as he had hoped, but it wasn’t a total loss because a good portion of it did adhere to the wound.

Everything is still healing up well. I’ve had no complaints regarding pain, just some insatiable itching where the healing is happening. It’s just a little bit awful to itch so badly but not be able to scratch or otherwise ease the itching! Scratching at this point in the process would damage the healing skin, so I can’t touch it…
