I have just had a lumpectomy plus several nymph nodes removed. The consultant plans to see me in 2 weeks time. Do I need to wait this long before changing the dressings, the one around my breast is fine but the one under my arm looks like it could do with a change of plaster. Also what do women use to clean the area, I have been using baby wipes and wondering if this is ok. 

Thanks
