21 Answers
Tomorrow it will be 3 weeks since I had the operation. I have been having it dressed daily, including packing up until this Monday when the nurses decided it could be done every other day.
As I was at the hospital yesterday they told me to do the dressing myself when I got home so I had a shower before I went to hospital and just put a fresh dressing over the top, no packing. When I removed the dressing to show the doctor there was blood on it. There is always gunky stuff but there hasn't been blood since I had the op. Is that normal? Should I be worried about the bleeding? I did ask the doctor but he could not answer a single one of my questions.

These dangerous little critters used to be found mainly around the streams of the Dorset village of Blandford – hence the name.
But increasingly warmer weather has resulted in them spreading their reign of terror.
Okay, it’s hugely unlikely they’ll actually kill anyone, but their bites are a real nuisance, leaving some victims hospitalised.
They’re active between May and August and measure just a couple of millimetres long, but they can make a right mess of your leg.
