REMOVAL OF FABRIC BANDAGE STUCK TO .... WIZEWUN SUGGESTS: Assuming that it is blood or plasma which has dried on the bandage to cause it to adhere to skin and the wound, then irrigate the bandage with boiled water which you allow to cool down to tepid (warm). You can then wrap a sheet of cling film over it for an hour or so and allow the dried plasma to absorb the water while you go on living. When the plasma has softened it will release and the bandage may be removed without disturbing the healing. Good health!
