    Thanks

    I've been following up with my doctor every 3-4 days just to make sure everything is OK.

    Just a wee chunk of flesh missing. Yikes. Hope it's healed up soon and your back on the bike.

    Ouch that sucks. Keep it clean and follow the docs instructions, I had to clean my wound 3x's a day. Buy lot's of pads, you'll need more than you think. I hope they gave you some pain killers, mine didn't and it hurt like a mofo.

    Thanks. Yeah I clean it 1-2 times a day with soapy water and cover it with non stick pads with neosporin

    It's Def costly. I've spent about 100 on medical supplies for 7 days worth of cleaning already.

    I did get some narcotic pain killers that I only take when I'm about to clean the wound.

    Dirt

    I almost want to say that my knee dug into the edge of a rut and dragged in it for a few feet.
