i'm a nurse but kinda embarrassed that i don't know the answer! i am 8 days post op and all of the edges have pulled loose and sort of broken off. the glue directly on the incisions seems tight still. i'm showering but because i had a drain until yesterday, i was facing away from the Water. the sites have all gotten good and wet but don't seem anywhere close to this stuff coming off. opinions?

I would leave it on until it comes off by itself it has to be doing something good. If you just cant I think alchole will take it off

Yes..I would suggest you keep it on till it loosens and falls off by itself. I would say 2-3 weeks.
