Guest guest Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 C .. i had a lower done almost 2 weeks ago and i've been treating my body the best i can to speed up the healing process. taking lots of fluids, icing then heating after 5 days, and getting as many calories as i possibly can. from what i know, it's just lymph fluids draining from the site of trauma. . i was pretty relieved to see the bruising as i know how my body is coping with the surgery. it's supposed to go away. i just recommend being active to keep the blood circulation going and getting heat to the site of injury to help the circulation on its way. have no fear <html><DIV><FONT face= " Lucida Handwriting, Cursive " color=#000099></FONT> & nbsp;</DIV> <DIV><FONT face= " Lucida Handwriting, Cursive " color=#000099>derrick</FONT></DIV> <DIV> <P><IMG height=75 src= " http://www.educ.sfu.ca/pdp/admissions/content/general_information/images/sf\ u.jpg " width=425 align=bottom></P></DIV></html> <br><br><br> & gt;From: ceast36532 & lt;no_reply & gt;<br> & gt;Reply-To: orthognathicsurgerysupport <br> & gt;To: orthognathicsurgerysupport <br> & gt;Subject: [Orthognathic Surgery Support ] Re: Yellow bruising<br> & gt;Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 23:18:23 -0000<br> & gt;<br> & gt;Luna, it's not at all unusual, as time goes by.<br> & gt;<br> & gt;C.<br> & gt;<br> & gt; & gt; Derrick, have you tried rinsing with Gly-Oxide? It's a rinse available<br> & gt; & gt; at drugstores that gets foamy and eats away the icky stuff. I suspect<br> & gt; & gt; it's closely related to hydrogen peroxide, which would probably do<br> & gt; & gt; just as well in a pinch.<br> & gt; & gt;<br> & gt; & gt; Also, just curious about the bruising and yellow tinge -- did you have<br> & gt; & gt; upper, lower or both? I've just never heard of this and am wondering<br> & gt; & gt; if it's something I'll have.<br> & gt; & gt;<br> & gt; & gt; Luna<br> & gt;<br> & gt;<br> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
