Steri strips were applied after the staples were removed from my knee replacement surgical wound, and the doctor said I could take a shower but not a tub bath. Is this correct?

It's okay to take a shower while you have steri strips because getting them wet won't damage them. However, they may start to peel at the edges after they get wet. While showering is okay, don't soak in a bath or hot tub until your doctor says it's okay.
