Answers:
It is better not to rip off a bandaid.. You could pull open a wound or rip off a scab that has formed..

Gently pull it up from one corner in the direction of the wound.. When you get to the wound, pull it up from the opposite corner..

If there is hair on the skin where you are going to put the bandaid, the only thing you can do is shave it first..

Remove the bandaid after your shower, not before.. That way it has a chance to loosen itself from the wound, just in case it is stuck on.. Health Question & Answer

The point of a band-aid is to protect your cut from germs, dirt, and anything that bothers it while it is healing.. You are supposed to take it off before you shower and then put a new one on when you get out.. You should clean your cut before you put one on.. When it gets dirty you should pull it off fast.. It might hurt a little bit but not anywhere near as much as an infection.. Some brands do not stick as much but they might fall off.. You have to keep your cut clean until it's healed so that should take care of the sticky stuff..Health Question & Answer
