After having open heart surgery, patients are left with a very long, painful and irritating healing incision in the middle of the chest; all patients that go thru Sternotomy suffer this.
(sternotomy is a type of surgical procedure in which a vertical inline incision is made along the sternum, after which the sternum itself is divided, or "cracked". This procedure provides access to the heart and lungs for surgical procedures such as heart transplant, corrective surgery for congenital heart defects (CHDs), Valve replacement or coronary artery bypass surgery.)
Many doctors are now opting for leaving the stitched incision open so it can air itself and promote faster healing, This is a good idea, however leaving the freshly stitched incision open exposes the wound to the elements, accidental contact and possible foreign objects, which in result delays healing as originally described.
Wearing any type of shirts or bedding causes inevitable contact between the healing chest wound and the fabric which translates into tremendous pain, irritation and the chance of infection delaying healing due to the constant rubbing.
Driving under these conditions even when you ok to drive proves virtually impossible due to the seat belt pressure and movement.
