TOPIC: PMMA stopping wound healing

Recent quote from AstroD. I didn't want to take over Heimdall's progress report.

'My hole after the fourth round never closed up. So I went back to Dr. C and he used electro caud to melt the PMMA away from the opening and deeper. I have two large pea size scars now, but it's healed...took months. I still feel something hard under one of them. I may go back to have him do another electro surg to remove it.;'

Heimdall is recovering and waiting for his wound to heal.

I've noticed that there have been a few cases of the skin failing to heal, seemingly, due to PMMA.
It seems that it doesn't heal over itself. Restoration had issues with it too.

This should be a big concern for us.

First of all, what is 'electro caud'? A current which melts the PMMA away?

I should have said cautery. It's what docs use to cut tissue but without the bleeding that a knife or scalpel would cause, hence the electrical cauterization (stoppage of bleeding by burning?) Similar to lasers I guess.
