I had a drain, surgeon removed and said I could shower just recover it after. They gave me soft tape and large gauze

They said just don't put any ointment, creams etc in it ...all incisions are glued except drain hole and he said to keep all wounds clean and dry

    I was told the same as above except don't rub soap on your incisions. Instead wash your chest area and let the soap run down your body. You do this until the glue comes off ( on its own).
