Should I cut the flappy bit off or just keep it under wraps?

I haven't been wearing a bandage over it because it is decently healed already and it gets waterlogged so often. Everytime I shower I notice the liquid pockets but I just squeegee it out with my nail. Just out of shower (please don't mind the background of pictures) and accidently peeled back the skin. This hasn't happened before and I'm just not sure what to do.

Worried I'm losing too much too quick

I'm 5'1 (156cm) and started at 142 lbs (64.5 kg). So I wasn't extremely overweight, but wanted to be more confident in my body and lose 20 or so pounds. In the past month that I've been food conscious, just cutting snacks out of my diet, very few desserts, smaller dinner portions, I've lost 8 pounds. Which is good and I'm really happy about it! I just feel like it's suspicious..

I've heard that if you're losing more than 1.5 lbs a week, at this weight anyway, it's most likely muscle that you're losing as well along with some other things besides fat. Is there anyway to tell if this is true for me? Or how to stop it? I don't lift or even really go to the gym but I ride my bike for a few miles every other day and go for hikes often. I'm just worried.
