How should wounds be treated after knee surgery?

Do not remove bandage until at least 24 hours after surgery.

Have it elavated as much as possible.

change bandages often when ok.

Ok, to take shower after 48 hours, make sure it CAN NOT get wet though.

OK to get WET after 5 days, but make sure not to soak it or have it under water (no baths, no pool, no beach)

than your stitches should come out and you still shouldn't have it underwater for a week or two.

hope i helped =]

I had knee surgery recently and this is what the doctor told me to do with my surgery wounds.
