Hello,

If your surgery was done laparoscopically (not open belly), you no longer have stitches, and the wound has completely closed with no signs of infection, yes it is possible to bathe.

It is my pleasure,

Sarah-Yan Chagnon, pharmacist

J'ai gradué de l'Université Laval en 2015. J'ai choisi le métier de pharmacienne car je suis une personne qui aime les défis et être challengée. Je vois dans l'initiative ''Question pour un pharmacien'' un moyen supplémentaire d'aider les gens et de combattre la désinformation sur internet. Les pharmaciens sont des personnes engagées ayant la santé de leurs patients à cœur. Il ne suffit parfois que de demander. Ainsi, n'hésitez-pas à poser vos questions ou à venir en personne à ma pharmacie. Au plaisir !
