Frequently Asked Questions About Shower Lanyard for Mastectomy Drain
What is a shower drain lanyard?
A shower drain lanyard is a special accessory designed to hold surgical drains while you take a bath or shower. By holding the drains in place, it frees up your hands and makes post-surgery showering less awkward.
How does the shower lanyard for mastectomy help during recovery?
A mastectomy drain lanyard keeps your surgical drains out of the way in the shower, minimizing the risk of painful tugging. It also reduces the risk of pain that would come from dangling, and can also hold them in place when changing and dressing up.
How do you attach surgical drains to the lanyard?
Start by placing the lanyard around your neck and then pass the drain tubes through the loop to hold them together. You can put them behind, in front, or away from you for a hassle-free shower experience.
Is the lanyard safe to use immediately after surgery?
Yes. You can and should use the drain lanyard as soon as the doctor allows you to shower after the surgery to care for the surgical drains and reduce painful movement.
Is the lanyard reusable, and how should I clean it?
Yes. The drain lanyard for shower is made of a lightweight material that dries easily. To clean it, wet the lanyard and then rub in mild soap gently before rinsing it out and leaving it to air dry.
Does the lanyard only work with mastectomy surgical drains?
No. You can also use our versatile lanyard for tummy tuck drains, JP drains, abdominal debridement, and other surgeries that require drains.
