Is it okay to shower with a packing where you got an incision?!


Question: Is it okay to shower with a packing where you got an incision?
I have an infection in my breast and had an incision and draining done today. Is it okay for me to shower with the packing? And also, should I keep the packing covered or is it okay for me to take a covering off? I should have asked my doctor these questions, silly me!
