I appreciate the thought but I'm good - not being a difficult patient, I was told not to exercise "or else", and I do not... I was told I could drive... This is purely mechanical in nature - I'm not taking any pain meds (Oxy lowered my filters so much that I simply did not give a F any longer and said whatever I really thought - more than usual)... Now it's basically a flesh wound with lots of stitches to pull the meat together internally and externally... No arteries, organs... Inconvenient but not terribly painful except when driving. I'm simply trying to avoid the rubbing. Any tape buildup as a cushion appears to make it worse as it pulls more skin around... Doc finally got back to me with a recommendation for a big gauze compress on the wound itself and different kind of tape to affix it... Will try, so far the neck pillow wins ;-) Seems to be haling nicely, just not fast...
