Laparoscopy incisions opened.

I had a diagnostic laparoscopy on Friday 22nd and was diagnosed with endometriosis. I had a complication in surgery where they punctured my bowel. They took the stitches out yesterday but it has popped open and keeps bleeding/weeping. I have tried using steri strips and been back to my GP but they dont seem to be listening. Can anyone give me suggestions for keeping my wound closed,clean and to stop bleeding. Thanks!
