Itchy!

[The Chopster]

I was banded on Thursday and was told to leave my dressings on for 5 days but my wounds are itching like mad! Do you reckon 5 days means today or tomorrow? I don't want to take the dressings off too soon and all my insides fall out!!

Itching is a good sign - it shows you are healing xx
