Asked By:Prettywoman123 in New York, NY

The inflammation under & around the tape got so bad that I called my PS asking if the tape should be removed. He said I can try to take it off by myself, so I tried, but there's no way I can remove it because the skin under the tape is oozing & is filled with liquid - the tape comes off with the skin leaving big bloody wounds. How do I remove it without ripping all of my skin off? Should I keep it on until it falls off? If so, will I run the risk of infection? Please help!
