Rhinoplasty recovery exposed stitches? Will I be okay? Please help:)

The steri strip that was covering stitches at the base of the septum fell off (kept sliding down my lip) and now the stitches are exposed. I have stitches to the side of each nostril also, covered by strips. I am probably being extra anxious for no reason but is this going to be ok or should the stitches not be left without the steri strip? I'm in day 5 of 1 week recovery with another appt in 3 days. I am applying ointment and ocean spray but was not instructed to clean t(hence dried blood).
