beau 0 Posted October 9, 2007 Hi all, I'm not quite two weeks post op and my incisions are coming along nicely. I've noticed that there is a couple small blistery type marks where the tape was that are sort of itchy, could I be sensitive to the tape? I've never had an operation before and don't know?

Wheetsin 714 Posted October 9, 2007 Definitely a possibility. I have a bad reaction to most adhesives. When they took off my staple covers, skin came off with them. Steristripsleave welts and weird things that look like tiny cuts. I won't even go into what Band-aid brand bandages do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JLB 0 Posted October 9, 2007 Very possible. I had tiny little blisters in Patches where my steri strips were. The walk-in clinic misdiagnosed me but after one call to my surgeon I was told that alot of people have an allergic reaction to steri strips and that the blisters would go away. Sure enough they healed up fine, no problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
