NO Hungi for this Tongueeeeeeeeeee

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

It’s a really blurry photo Bruce and I can’t improve it. I’ve PM’d it to you. Maybe you have a magic wand. [emoji3]

Peter,

The lips are stitched together. They use dissolving stitches so no need for bandages.

The tongue will be sewn to the roof of the mouth to stop the movement and allow it to heel.

(try breathing though your mouth with your tongue touching the roof.) They have to be careful of a blocked nose. Fed though one nostrel, breathing though the other.

Not a funny situation.


I've got a friend called Nigel, he's told be about similar surgeries.

Yeah,

Nigel reckons you've really got to be careful with the roof stitch. The needle can't penetrate into the sinus otherwise an infection might start or worse, the stitches have to come out via the nose.

You have to pull out the tubes to get to them.

If it's infected, then it looks a bit like an ox tongue in the butchers.

Most surgreons are aware of the risks; I think Nigel studied overseas; the colder moist air in hospitals are worse. The african hospistals like Nigera where Nigel studied are best becuase the air is warm and dry. better for the nostil tubes and infections.
