A member asked:
Will i need to remove gauze stuck to a dermabond-closed wound?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Would be: Advisable and if you can do so very cautiously. Dermabond can be puled apart rather easily. Might want to have a physician take a look. If you do so yourself use only clean water, no peroxide and go slowly and gently.
