How to remove gauze stuck to open wound that been soaked in saline for an hour and still won't come off?
Wow! Soaking a wound in saline (preferably sterile saline) for one hour should be sufficient to remove the gauze attached to the wound. If, after soaking this length or time, and the gauze is still adhered, then be very careful. If this is still an open wound, then pulling the gauze off forcefully could restart bleeding or pull away healing tissue. Slowly pull the very outer edges of the gauze while continuing to allow the wound to soak in the saline would be the best thing to do next. If you are still not successful in removing the gauze you may want to seek assistance at your health care provider's office. How long has the gauze been on the wound? If gauze has been on an open would for even 36 - 48 hours, the skin of the healing wound may actually have begun growing into the gauze. You definitely need to have you doctor remove the gauze and assess the wound.
