Surgical Glue Allergy
This week my dermatologist informed me that I am allergic to surgical glue. A hernia operation earlier in the month has caused me to have infections around the three robotic incision sites and a large red rash and raised red sores around my mid-section and ribs. I am taking AMOX/K CLAV825-125mg twice daily for he infection. I am also applying mupirocin 2% ointment twice daily on the incision wounds which have been oozing. I cover the wounds with a sterile bandage after applying the mupirocin. I also am applying clobetasol propionate .05% on the rash and sores. Has anyone else had this experience and if so, what treatments/meds helped to solve the ailments? Over what period of time please? Thanks!
