Thank you for the info Dianne! I hope that your son is doing better now or on the road to a quick and healthy recovery! The drain definitely is uncomfortable!
Jan- Right now the lower 2 foot or so of my small intestine is diverted and made into an s-pouch. That was done in Columbus, OH Wexner. For whatever reason I have holes in it now but I also had an anal stricture. My surgeon in Cleveland dilated it but a week later I was back to the hospital where they drained a liter of fluid. When he placed the drain he drained more fluid. I guess it still has to do with the stricture but my redo surgery he said would take care of this issue. Until then I just have to put up with this.
I'll have to look into asking about ointments this coming week. Thank you!
