1. Did/does your child have a sort of bump near the sternum after surgery? G does and she did when she last saw the cardio. They said it would eventually go away once the muscle rebuilds up around the bone or something like that and that it could take awhile. Just wondering if this is true with anyone else.
2. Do/did you use anything on the incision site to make the scar less noticeable? (i.e. vitamin e or something?) Or doctors said it's ok to do that once all scabbing is gone. If you did, what did you use and did it help at all?
Thanks!
