is it nessescary to be completely naked during a leg amputation? i’m supposed to be getting my leg amputated in a few months and i’ve had a few surgeries in the past, however i can’t remember if nudity is fully necessary.
i know it sounds a bit stupid but i’m just really uncomfortable being fully naked, are you allowed underwear and a bra? or is it nessescary to be fully nude? i understand the gown but as dumb as it sounds i just get really uncomfortable being naked, especially infront of people. thank you!!
