I am talking about the ones covering the insicions

Most posts I read said things like "wait till they fall off"

Mine were half on and half off and getting caught on my shirts.

My doctors office said I could take them off in the shower.

I did this morning verrrrry slowly...

when did you remove yours?

I went for my post op appt today and the first words out of my surgeons mouth were - What happened here?? :biggrin: One of my steri strips had unstuck around the corners etc and was getting caught on my pjs so I took it off. It bled like 2 drops and so I figured to be safe I would cover it with a bandaid. She seemed disappointed but she plucked that band aid right off and said look no blood its fine and left it uncovered. I'm itchy (the good itchy-healing) and could probably take the others off but I think I'll wait till Friday - day 10 for me.
