I has a therapeutic mammoplasty and sentinal lymph node biopsy on Tuesday and currently at home waiting for the results.
The surgeon glued my skin closed but put on some strapping which I took off 24 hours post op. I have some tape under there though - it goes under my boob and round my nipple as well as a bit under my arm where they did the biopsy. My discharge notes don't say anything about taking this off, just that the glue should come off in about 10 days.
Should I be trying to take this tape off or is it enough to let the water run over it in the shower and see if that loosens it?
Thank you!
