My tummy tuck drain stick ripped out what should I do? (Photo)

jackwhite10
My surgeon is in another state so I can’t go to him, I emailed the nurse. But I need to know how I can keep tubing in place as I’m still draining 50cc per day and was told to leave in until I hit 15cc or less for 3 days in a row. Tape and Bandaids are not working?
