What do you call the bandage-like stuff that they put on wounds in
places where band-aids don't fit. It's like translucent rubber, sticks
tightly to the skin and moreso to hair, and the doctor called it by name
twice but he talked too fast for me.

I was hoping to google and find advice for removing it, 'cause as much
as I pull, some places it won't free up.



My first guess was liquid suture but
my google search found this - derma bond -

Googled this up:

Safety data sheet shows it is nitrocellulose solution.

Further reading says it is for small cuts and should not go into the
wound itself which should be pinched shut, I guess.
