Steri-strip residue
I do not know why the Drs offices do not wipe the pts steri strip areas with adhesive remover pads before they leave the office. You might be able to get these at your local pharmacy. They are I beieve lanolin based and wite the tackiness right off.

Hi Jeanine! I'm so glad you asked this question!! I've had the same problem with that sticky glue!! I finally was able to get most of it off with NAIL POLISH REMOVER!!!! The regular kind, not the non- acetone stuff. Also, I had to kind of hold the soaked pad over the glue and pull it off like you would a piece of string. Nasty stuff. When I told you I was all black and blue, I actually wasn't, it was the tape marks!! Plus, I didn't have my glasses on!
What's this about an infection???? Sounds nasty!
So glad you're doing well!!
