Had My Hair Washed, Cut and Beard Trimmed
[ Wednesday November 19th 2025 at 1:39 pm ]

I haven't been able to keep up with washing and cutting my hair. The recovery from my April 2nd 2025 has been incredibly challenging with a seroma that simply won't dry up. What is more incredible is that it is painful. Statistically speaking both are incredibly rare. It isn't normal to have a seroma form following joint replacement surgery. When a seroma does form it isn't normally painful. The upshot is that my incision from April 2nd 2025 isn't staying closed yet. I have been quite concerned that I could cause an infection by getting water used to wash my body into the opening and get my new artificial hip infected. I really don't want to have to go through the surgery to address an infected joint or possibly even replace the joint because of having an infection. In the scheme of things I didn't think it really mattered if I washed my hair. I want to start the recovery from my right artificial hip being replaced on a good note. I have gone to the First Choice Hair barbershop here in Belleville. I had my hair cut, washed and my beard trimmed. I look really handsome right now. When Monday morning comes I will be ready to head to Kingston to set in motion a second chance at life when I get my new artificial hip.
