I have a guaze stuck to the skin of my knee how do i removenit without feeling pain?

Moistening the gauze with a bit of water of hydrogen peroxide will usually make it loose enough to come off. Be sure to dry the area after as the water can interfere with healing. A hair dryer blowing at no heat can do the trick.

The most effective way is to moisten the gauze gradually until it is wet and it should let go
