    Hello people

    My bandage on my back has kind of ripped my skin- it’s bleeding and is so sore itchy! Maybe I’ve been scratching near the sides of the bandage when sleeping or I’m allergic to the plastic buts it killing

    Not sure whether to keep the bandage on or is it making it worse? I’ve put salon on but not worried when I get my bandages of it will rip the skin further (my skin is red raw around the side of the bandage)

    Help or advice would be great
    Thank you xxxxxxxxx

    Hey hun I really think you should ring the emergency line and ask for some advice. You might need to leave it on and maybe just buy a different type of bandage tommrow. I know its not a life or death situation but still I would give them a ring because you seem to be in a lot of pain xxx

    Hey just a follow up if any one experiences this

    The bandage was irritating my skin on my back so my mum peeled back the bandage and trimmed it- then put dressing on them- as my bra rubbed on them. The nurse said they are just the same as blisters you grt on your feet. However a week on they are still sore and my bra keeps rubbing them.

    Just trim the bandage before it gets to the stage I was at!

    Ps. I got boobs!
