Question:
Will using an infrared heat sauna cause any problems with the wires?
I had my aortic heart valve replaced. Doctor closed my ribs with wire. This happened 12 weeks ago. Will using an infrared heat sauna cause any problems with the wires? Did this at St. Luke’s Hospital, Houston, TX – excellent job done.

If the incision is fully healed, there should be no problem with using the sauna, following proper directions.
