Blood stained steri strips!!

Hi needing some advice please, yesterday I went for my 2 week check with the nurse she said all was fine but my right incision was weeping nothing to worry about. New steri strips on told me to shower in 3 days take of strips to see how it’s healing, but today I have had a little look and and left strip has blood on… Do yous think I should take it off see how it is or leave it?? I’m in no pain and hasn’t bothered me at all xx

I had the same problem my incisions healed slowly.. i would have a look see if its still weeping if it is recover the incision with a fresh strip until it stops hun u dont want to get a infection x

Thank you missy, are they easy enough to remove? Am a little scared incase I pull something I shouldn’t! Xx

No hun be careful they stick like glue.. when i took them off myself it tore all my skin i was numb didnt realise.. i would make it damp first and peel slowly x

Arnica tablets are perfect to heal faster! They heal you from
The inside out grab those and they’ll work wonders! Xx

Also start in the middle and pull outwards that what my nurse told me x

Do yous think I could just just a damp face cloth an it to lift it a little! Tried calling the clinic but no answer xx
