So for many of my followers on Facebook, you probably are aware of a wound I have been fighting for over 1.5 years and if you don't follow me on Facebook, then you aren't aware of much since I just started really keeping up with my blog.
Anyway a little backstory, May 2017, I awoke one night with my back feeling swollen and hurting. I thought a rod had penetrated my skin and was broken (turns out there were broken rods,) I had an abscess (boil) on my back, which, a day or two later popped, and ever since I been fighting with an open sore wound that comes and goes. For two months, I saw my GP, after a few rounds of antibiotics and it not healing, she referred me to Wound Care.
Wound Care has packed it with
mesalt, cauterized it, packed it wound-gel, and even surgery to clean out/take out the "sinus tract." The wound still comes back. Thankfully, we don't think the rods have been infected (hopefully they aren't wrong).
Anyway, It had behaved for over a month or two and I thought for sure it had decided to finally start to heal up. Then tonight, I noticed the area around it felt swollen around it (fluid
build up) and was oozing slightly with a tinge of blood too), and that it itched, So I had my fiance' look at it and sure enough, as usual, the
hypergranulate tissue poked through the wound and reopened it. AGAIN! So will call wound care in the morning and try to get in. *SIGH*
