 Hello sister, I am a boy aged 18,I recently had an accident and my foot caught in the axle of the bus and i lost my skin and i have undergone a split thickness skin graft first i was very much afraid but after the operation i found nothing difficult in it the place were the skin was taken will have a slight ant bitten sensation for 4 to 5 days only the dressing will have only a less amount of pain.The pain will take place when they remove the stitches or pins from the place.You have to keep the leg in a pillow that will have some pain but not more than you afraid and when you start to walk it will be difficult to give waitbearing for a month but after that you will become normal six months rest was better.IT WONT HAVE MUCH PAINS OR PROBLEMS.you should be careful after the operations for 6 months.If you want my skingrafted photo send email ill send it to you.WISH YOU A GOOD SUCCESS.PRAY TO JESUS CHRIST SURRENDER YOURSELF TO HIM AND HAVE FAITH HE WILL SURELY HELP YOU AND HEAL YOU.i pray for you -Dany
