I have this cut and it put some gauze over it and medical tape on the edges to keep it in place but i couldn't put an ace bandage over it because of its location!. And not I need to shower and I don't know if it is waterproof :/ Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I don't think cotton gauze pad is waterproof!. But u can use Tangaderm or other similar transparent dressings to tape over it!. Tangaderm is waterproof!. But u need to be careful even if it is waterproof!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
