Hi I had a dressing inside the wound nearby my neck. They left some clothes inside the wound for healing because there was a big hole in my wound. But I forgot to ask them that do I have to change the dressing everyday. Otherwise it will come out side itself once the wound will be healed. Please suggest asap.

You have to get the dressing changed everyday, otherwise the guaze left might get infected or erode the surrounding structures. So go and change the dressing.
