How is the wound treated after coronary artery bypass surgery?

  For a few weeks after surgery, there will be varying degrees of pain and sometimes localized redness, which will disappear after a period of time. It is recommended to continue the treatment with a chest strap for three months after surgery. Patients with coronary artery bypass grafting usually have all openings in the legs. When resting or sitting, the lower limbs should be elevated to help reduce discomfort or swelling in the legs. About 1 week after the stitches are removed, as long as the wound heals well, you can wash it with clean water and soap, but keep the wound clean and dry, do not swim or do throwing sports until the wound is completely healed, and do not use local cleansers, talcum powder and other substances on the wound.
