New member...... I have had several skin cancers in the past (basil and squamous (spelling?)...They have always been taken care of with nitrogen or excising.

I had mohs' surgery on my nose last tuesday and it required a skin graft. The donor spot is nothing more than if you had suffered a cut and had to have stitches.

However, the graft location is a little confusing. I have searched the net looking for info. Should it be reddish and have a little blood on the surface when changing the bandage?

The first day and half the spot looked very light colored. Then it turned reddish. I am using polysporin and proxide to clean and lubricate the spot. Each day when I clean it with the proxide I notice that it is quite red and some spotting appears on the q-tip.

Is this normal??
