Answer 1

Fill your bathtub with either cold or hot water, sit in it for about 20 minutes ( or until the band-aid is loosened,  then slowly lift up the corners, if it doesn't hurt, slowly and carefuly hold your leg, and start to peel it off. It it still hurts the only other thing to do with less pain then ripping it off is the lift it up slowly trimming the hairs while pulling:(.

Sorry to hear about the accident.

Good luck , hope I helped!

Answer 4

Are you sure you don't need stitches? Time is of the essence if you do. If not, try clipping the hair around the band-aid. Try ice to numb the area. If you have a open would last thing you want to do is soak in the tub until it is closed.

You can also try baby oil to loosen the adhesive
