my mom had gallbladder laparoscopy surgery a month ago but her stitches still haven't healed properly and she's diabetic - is this normal or should we be worried about her wound healing taking so long
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Delayed wound healing after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery in diabetics is common—optimize sugar levels and follow wound care strictly.

My scan report shows mild probe tenderness in the right iliac fossa and a mildly dilated appendix at 5mm with a few enlarged lymph nodes in the RIF. It says no perforation but mentions subacute appendicitis. No kidney stones or hydronephrosis were found. Do I need surgery for this or can it be managed with meds?
Subacute appendicitis with probe tenderness can sometimes be managed with antibiotics, but recurrence risk makes surgery advisable.
