Hi I had basal cell carcinoma local flap surgery a few days ago and the bruises/swelling are coming out quite bad. The area was in the crease of my nose and was quite a deep removal. I am taking paracetamol for the pain but doesn't really help. Is there anything else I can take t ease the pain. My stiches will come out on 22nd July. Also I had a lot of bleeding over the weekend that has stopped, can i change my dressing as it is covered with blood?
Many thanks Susie09
