Which bandages/dressings work best for you?

Posted , 2 users are following.

I have always had a hard time finding which bandages work best for different areas of the body. For me, transparent waterproof bandages are working best for me, such as MePore. I Used to use fabric plasters but they don't seem to do the job anymore.

    Depends on the area under the arm I use gause and paper tape. on waste I use fabric bandaids.

    I have found that the baking soda and watwr mixture paste after a few days breaks them. sometimes i let them drain in a loose gause or sometimes i put a bandaid on them. After some time they dry out.

    by the way if you do use baking soda and water use it only for a short time. raiswd by bp 20 points has to do with salt i think use it until they break then stop and wash area.

    Seawater also helps a lot drys them out
