Hi, it is best to continue with the prescribed aftercare to you and follow your surgeon's instructions as to caring for yourself during #recovery (such as wearing garments or lymphatic massage) to get the best results. Do not hesitate to contact your surgeon and clarify the use of Salonpas to ensure that there will be no complications that may interfere with your healing.

You should take the patch with the list of ingredients and present them to your surgeon and allow them to approve or disapprove.  Thank you for your question and good luck.
