multiple choice question
what should patients do if they see any signs of infection after a surgical procedure?
call the office
take pictures of the wound
take ibuprofen
wait two days to be sure and then notify the surgeon
In medical practice, if a patient sees signs of infection after a surgical procedure, the appropriate action is to contact the medical office (where the surgeon or medical team is available) promptly. Taking ibuprofen (a pain reliever, not for infection management), taking pictures, or waiting two days can delay proper care and worsen the infection. So the correct choice is to call the office.
