Hello! So I am 4 weeks post op breast reduction, no drains were used. I had dissolvable stitches and the dermabond and gauze strips have come off. I know for the first week or so I was advised not to get the glue and strips soaked or to let the direct spray hit them. Now all that's gone and I'm hanging free. Incisions look fine. Can I turn around now and let the water hit my chest? Or should I wait a bit longer?
