Sorry to keep butting into your thread.

I have a head bandage/wrap too. It's behind my ears that is giving me problems. The bandage goes over the top of my ears. I think this scab is going to take a long time to heal.

Dr. Luque has done ultra sound on my face almost every day so I have no more bruising at all after a week. I am really happy about that. I didn't want to go back to work all bruised up.

Stop!  You're not butting into my thread!  We are here to support each other Dear!  I am so sorry you have a scab - that sounds horrible!  Did he see and feel it?  What does he say? 
Don't you worry about asking questions! Okay?  We are all in this together!  I wish I could help you!  I brought the OB Tampons to put behind my ears to keep the ears from pressing on the stitches.  I've been using them on around my mons drains because they pull with my garment.  Does your head garment look like mine?

Thanks so much. I see him tomorrow. I am anxious to hear what he has to say about this area behind my ears.

I am sure our bandages are probably the same. It's really helped with the swelling in my face but my neck is swelled huge. I asked him why he had to use staples and he said that there was  a lot of tension  to lift my neck back up. I guess whatever it took to get rid of that turkey neck I had will be worth it.

i wear my hair long and it's a good thing because I am sure there are going to be bad scars behind my ears :(
