I washed the skin with antibiotic soap and water and pat to dry. Then covered the incision with a large bandage since I don't have any steri strips. I am having trouble finding them sold locally and won't be able to get any until Monday probably. I am 3 weeks and 2 days post op. My doctor wanted me to wear the strips for 4 weeks. What should I do with the incision? Should I reapply a steri stri as soon as I can? Will it be okay with a bandage in the meantime?
