How soon can I shower after getting stitches removed?

hi! i had a fairly large epidermoid cyst removed from my chest a couple of weeks ago. it required internal stitches and also stitches on the outside, which i got removed yesterday. my RN who removed it did not specify when i’m supposed to shower. there’s a little internal stitch that’s poking through the surface, which might dissolve if i’m not mistaken? so i’m guessing it’s still open? i don’t know lol help should i shower or wait another 24-48 hours? thanks

bathroom use in repeat assignment

hi everyone! i had a question about school policy and bathrooms? lol ive been subbing for one teacher a lot. i met him when i went for a half day assignment and he said he needs a whole lot of shifts picked up so now i’m in his class at least once a week, sometimes 2-3.
i’m getting pretty annoyed with the front office lady who told me i wasn’t allowed to use the teacher’s bathroom, which has a key code on it, but instead i have to walk all the way across school to come use the bathroom in the main building. the staff restroom is three doors down from the class i’m in, so it’s frustrating. they won’t give me the code because it’s the same one that opens the front gate apparently, so it’s a safety concern??
i’m also on medication right now that requires i keep hydrated, so sometimes i have to call someone to come in and cover for me while i go. it would be a lot easier to just run between classes.
would it be weird or a bad look to ask the teacher i sub for for the bathroom code? should i just suck it up and just keep doing what im doing? its the end of the year so stakes are low but still. i have a lot of respect for this teacher and love his classes.
has anyone had this experience before?
thanks!
