Not sure where to post this but I had surgery a few days ago and I had an iv on the back of my right hand. Now there’s a bruise by my elbow pit where I can see my vein circle around. I don’t want to poke my surgeon bc it seems so dumb 😭

just call! I had some breathing issues after I had surgery and I called and a nurse helped me, they didn’t even have to consult the surgeon. and even if they do, that’s fine! surgery costs included post care (including answering questions related to your surgery) so you’ve already paid for this—ask away!!
