Hi Heyitsme,
On Monday I will see my doc and will ask him that question. I am two weeks out of surgery and I am still very sore. My instructions state no sit baths. They are worried about infections. I have been using a clean wet hot facecloth. This works for a while but the pain returns. Hot showers also work with a spray nozzle. Doc says that it is okay to run warm soapy water over stitch area.
Hopes this helps. I would think if your wound has healed completely then you could not get a infection.
My cath removal test is still two weeks away due to my age and diabetes. I still have a super public in place for a backup and will not have it removed unless I can pee regularly. Have had the super public for a year now and use to it. Do not want to have to have another put back in.
Please keep me updated on how you are doing.
Thank you,
Steve
