Hi there 

New to this forum, I recently had a Basel cell carcinoma excision removal from the top of my forehead, the clinical nurse who did the procedure placed a pressure dressing on the wound and was advised to keep the dressing dry and not to remove until stitch removal in 7 days, is the 7 day dressing common?
