Hey Kevin

Thanks for your comment, I'm glad at least someone is reading my ramble as it makes it worthwhile lol!

I went to Dr. Feller, and the aftercare recommended that up to Day 3, you just tip water and shampoo over the grafts. Since Day 4 I have been gently massaging the grafts and trying to keep the donor area completely clean. Probably best to ask your Dr., but my guess would be (and Dr. Feller's guidance to me) was that you should gentley massage them to help the scabs fall off, but DO NOT pick at them or try to remove them with your fingernails or anything. I'm not worrying too much about whether the scabs are there or not, and just accepting that massaging will help a few to fall off and the rest will come when they are ready.

Most of my redness has gone now, just these damn staples are irritating me and I can't wait till they come out on Monday!

Good luck to you too mate,

Dan 

Thanks David! I'm glad all this writing wasn't in vain! lol
