Hi , 10 days ago I had my double masectomy and immediate reconstruction , I had my drains removed and I asked them to put another dressing on , yesterday I went to have a shower I pulled off the dressing and it has taken away some of my skin with it , leaving me with what looks like weepy sunburn . I went back to the hospital and they have given me some cream to apply twice a day, as anyone else had this experience with after surgery?

I hope this continue to improve. I had a very similar experience. I had never had surgery previously or any dressing applied. The Consultant said she thought i was allergic to the dressings. Following this i had further surgery and reconstruction my records show only Opsite Clear dressings to be used and this hasn’t happened since.
