Dr. R uses staples to close the 5 port holes. Some people have them removed by their pcp when they return home. I wished he stitched them instead of the staple, reminded me of a man with duct tape!

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2000 Report Share Posted May 20, 2000 , How did it feel to have the staples removed? I am a nurse and have removed staples after hip surgeries. I wonder if I could do it myself. I have a fairly high pain tolerance but would rather not have someone else inflict pain on me.
