Take care of that wound, @sparklebright62 . Do not hesitate to get medical help if you have any worries about it, especially if you have a high temperature.
Hopefully the swab will identify the best antibiotic to treat the infected wound. Rest and get well soon.

Hi to all,

Thankyou for the Replys yesterday I had more redness and still feel sore trying to keep it clean very hard to keep dry as their is a space around my tube site so have to keep changing underwear but a lot better than the virginal catheter doesn't hurt now.
But I am still on strong meds and feels itchy but I will be glad when my pain has gone more and I don't have an infection
At all.
Not long for Xmas now need to buy Rest of Grandchildrens C Presants so it's All done before the Day Arrives.
