Brief Answer:
Lubricating oil

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but I would recommend that you apply baby oil to try to lubricate the backing and make it loosen.

If this did not help then please head to the ER to avoid hurting yourself.

I hope you find this helpful
