I had something cut out of my leg on Tuesday and have three stitches there. Currently I have no band aid on it and it seems to be doing OK.
My questions is we are thinking of going to the beach (Oregon Coast) tomorrow. Do I need to be concerned about the sand or ocean water in regards to my stitches and everything healing ok? Advice? Thoughts?
Thanks!

Stitches need to be kept dry. You can buy a special clear band-aid type thing to put over it that will keep the water out. I'll try and remember what it's called - I got mine from the doc's office, but I think you can buy it over-the-counter.
I wouldn't let the water get on it.
