HI
Thank for asking to HCM"
I really appreciate your concern, looking to the history given here if this is postoperative even you have asked then your surgeon must have taken all the necessary precaution for this and no need to worry about this, only matter is secondary infection and this need to be taken into consideration, otherwise no need to worry about this, hope this information helps you have a nice day.
