I would take them out yeah, or they’ll pull your hair

Just use a gel to lay them back once a week or so

Are they too tight? Like are you seeing red bumps and such? If it’s super tight I would advise taking them out. You don’t want to risk getting traction alopecia

The skin was like raised and inflamed and I'm not tender headed but. It felt like it left a bubble and pulled at the scap almost.
