Does Dr. Kelly Use Steri-Strips Over Incisions?



Recommended Posts

In the post op instructions that Cecy gave me, it says there should be steri strips over my incisions, but I don't have any. I took a shower today, and my SO changed my bandages. My incisions are glued, but no steri-strips. I planned to ask Omar today when I see him, but it will be a few hours before he comes to the hotel.

WhenI went they gave me a cloth tape that would be placed over the incesion. I didnt like to use it though because it was too hard to change and it hurt to take off.

They put the steristrips on on your last day before you leave. Mine are finally falling off!

When Omar came to visit today, the first thing he told me is that Cecy will be here in a few hours to put on my steri-strips. He told me to take a shower before she arrived. I didn't even have to ask him.
