Answer 1

If you have to go then go.  If there was a problem I think your doctor would have informed you.  If you have questions regarding this, I'm sure the surgeon's office has someone on call.  I suggest giving the doctor a call if you have concerns.

Answer 2

What exactly is your question?

Answer 3

how close is it to that area??  you are just gonna have to go and see what happens.  i would use an antibacterial soap from now on and finish all of your antibiotics.
