Re: [RC] riding with a scar - Patricia Israelson

I had my thyroid gland removed in May and had a big, thick, bumpy, ugly scar that ran across my neck. The surgeon recommended Neosporin's Scar Solution strips. I used them for about three weeks and now you can barely see the scar on my neck. I hope this helps and you have as much success healing as I did.

Subject: [RC] riding with a scar



I have a fairly fresh, large, surgical scar on my inter thigh.Had a large , non-cancerous removed from that site. Looks like a gun shot wound because my stitches pulled out twice So, it had to pack it and let it heal open. It is still stiff and tender. Any ideas on how to help it soften up and/or heal nicely?
Also the seat edge that goes over the fender is about when the scar is. I was thinking of a saddle seat cover. Any other ideas about clothing to avoid irritating it. Fleece lined tights would help but I can't afford new ones right now.
Thanks for ideas.
