I had a tummy tuck 10 days ago and a breast lift with implants. Is it normal I have like ripped skin near my stitches of the tummy tuck? And My doctor told me not to take a fully shower for 20 days...what if I wash my whole body with anti sceptique soap? What should I do with the thing next to my stitches?
