Dear Linda,

I think the very best thing you can do is Call Your Doctor. This is the one person that knows your situation and can give you a correct answer.

He/she will be happy to tell you it's OK if it is; or to come in if it's something that needs to be taken care of.

Sometimes we just don't want to Bother them; but that's what they are there for and that's what we pay them for.

Do you agree Docs?
