Asked By:mohdazizomer in Turkey, TR

Hi I had FUE operation on 18 Aug and todays is 26 Aug, I want to know if the the operation day counts as post op day or not, so today is the nineth day or the eightth day? Tommorrow I have to get back to work but don't want to go office with scabs on my head, can I rub my recipient area to remove the scabs out or I should wait untill the tenth day and take the next 2 days off. Thanks
