When my wife was working on the med/surg floor, she was doing a dressing change on a woman one of the vascular surgeons and done a lower extremity bypass on. A toe came off with the gauze, and she did not know what to do. She called the surgeon and told him about it, what should she do with the toe? "Put it under her pillow, maybe the toe fairy will come." What? "Sorry, just send it to path lab and I will check it in the morning."
Treat your feet like you would for a baby. You would never give them a bottle without checking. Always check your bath water with your forearm, like a baby bottle.
