Since there were a few that asked. This is somewhat of a progression of pictures. Apparently my wife and i deleted quite a few so this is what is left.

Yeah. We leave stuff open all the time. Sometimes we even leave abdomens open with the intent to go back to the OR 1-2 days later. This is a fasciotomy. Just gotta keep it clean. It’ll get closed a bit little by little and if not all the way, skin grafted.

Understandable thought. In fact, we used to close all wounds on the battlefield during early wars. But eventually it became clear that closing the wound just traps in bacteria. Bacteria are just like us. They like warm wet places. So now standard of care is to leave infected wounds open and they heal from the bottom up. Best thing for a wound is to be draining and not accumulate.

That one goes on your right foot so that would explain why it doesn't fit on your left foot.

We've been so programmed by movies and TV to think that every single wound needs stitching. Often stitching is not the best option because it has a higher chance of infection. Being able to observe an open wound and clean it multiple times a day is healthier. Though it does create more of a scar and a aesthetically people don't love that

Here in india its pretty much the standard in the usual fruit shops. The shopkeepers cut the bunch from the stalk depending on how much the customers want.

I had a similar surgery on the bottom of my back, down into my buttcrack a little, and it had to be kept open to heal from the inside out, i got a home care taker to come over twice a day to pull out the gauze clean it and stuff new gauze in :p
