The surgeon told me to keep putting tape over my incision. Local anesthesia, dissolvable stitches. 2wks post op. Is this right?

I
always put small white surgical tapes over the incision, called steri-strips,
and even change them at 2 weeks, leaving them on another week or two.The tapes help to reinforce the incision
while it’s healing, and I think it leads to better scar formation than if you
didn’t use them.

Many times surgeons will use steri-strips or another method of taping an incisioni as it heals.  I see no reason for you to doubt your surgeon's advice. 

Many surgeons tape incisions for varying lengths of time. Your surgeons advice is not out of the norm.All the best.
