Default Vet fitted an E. Collar after the Snip but??

Dustie had the snip on Monday..The Vet said he is to wear an Elizabethan plastic Collar for all time for a week. He managed to get it off twice..then we fitted it to his collar which is reasonable tight around his neck..but heck..he got the collar in his mouth and panicked..I hadto cut the collar off to free him..I really panicked..So Now I don't know what to do. He has been licking the stiches and making them sore..so I have tried various items of clothing to tie on him..to no avail..he gets them all off..and he is now getting really angry with me when I approach him..I really don't know what to do now..His castrated area looks really sore...The Vet saw him again yesterday..gave him some antibiotics..but said the Collar had to stay on...I daren't risk putting it on him again now..dare I.

Please anyone..any advice..I am at my wits end...
