You should try to keep it in the same state it was in when you left hospital. So if it was covered then it would probably be better to cover it again. Make sure you keep it dry and watch out for signs of infection - heat, redness, pain, pus, discolouration etc. If any of these develop contact your Dr urgently.

u dont want to keep it covered all the time it needs air to heal but maybe when u r sleeping put some band aids or something.
