I'm not murican so money isn't the problem for me.
Its a crippling fear of doctors founded by a single dingle berries mistake over 10 years ago causing a year of problems and a skin transplant.
Many countries outside America does not cover dentist in social public health services.
They like premium bones or something.
In my country we have public healthcare but not dentists. If you want teeth you have to pay.
, Care to share? So we can learn from your mistakes?
I don't think its possible to do actually.
It was a mistake cause he removed a little thing from my skin that ended up causing me to be sick for a week cause he didn't close it up properly, it than went on to come back twice as bad.
If I'd have to turn it into a lesson, maybe triple quadruple check online if your the doctor you plan on going to has zero negative complaints?
Woof. So sorry.
I absolutely do not mean to diminish your pain or discount your experience, but every medical procedure comes with risks. Skin closures (sutures or otherwise) can be done correctly in the first place, but it is possible for the suture knot to come untied or for the suture material to break, and infection is the main risk for any procedure that breaks the skin.
To others reading this: the vast majority of physicians are competent professionals that always do the best that they can, but things can go wrong even if they do everything right. If a physician has one complaint against them for a poor outcome, that's pretty normal. If there are no complaints at all whatsoever, they probably haven't been in practice long enough for the statistics to catch up to them. If there's a pile of complaints (especially ones that cite carelessness or callousness) that would be one to be wary of.
