Questions & Answers
These are similar to Curad cloth bandages, which I've also used in the past. The only difference is the price...the same quality for a lower price; however, both brands come off when wet. These are something I would strongly suggest.
These bandages are, in fact, manufactured in the United States of America.
My MSA card was used to make the payment.
It isn't made of latex, to be sure.

When I missed a stair and landed on my knee, I was just getting my order of these large bandages. My arthritic knee When I realized the large, skinned wound was ideal for trying out the new bandages, I had a "be careful what you shop for" moment. They've been fantastic, to say the least! I believe one would have lasted days if I hadn't had to clean and air the scrape. So, either a gentle spirit was watching out for me when I was inspired to purchase these bandages, or a mischievous spirit tripped me on the last stair, necessitating the purchase of the same. Hmmm.
Because of the positive feedback, I decided to give these a try. Cost savings, but I'm not sure why they exist unless they've changed, because they don't last. The pad has a plastic coating, which I suppose is fine in some cases to prevent it from sticking to the wound, but it may not be absorbent enough when needed. If it stayed in place for more than 3 seconds, I'd include it. br>br>I had clear skin. I pressed it firmly into place after it had dried. I kept it there for a few moments. It was on my elbow, but we also tried it on my husband's shin, where it stayed put for a little longer but eventually fell off. br>br>In photos 2 and 3, the bandage is Bandaid Flex Fabric with a gauze pad all the way across. br>br>I'm sticking with the Bandaid brand; they're a little more expensive, but I've had no problems with the flex fabric type, and I prefer the pad to go all the way across. I'll reconsider if this company corrects the problems.
Because the wound had to close from the vertebrae on out, I now have a large indentation on the back of my neck. When I'm out in public, I'll wear these to hide that big scooped-out spot. These bandages, on the other hand, do not adhere to my skin very well. Also, I'm not a big sweater. I'm not convinced there's enough adhesive around the edges to keep it in place. Someone at that firm should, in my opinion, be re-evaluated. br>Even though the price was low, they were not cost effective because they didn't work.
Not even close to the quality of Band Aid or Curad brand bandages. I was extremely disappointed. I now understand why they were less expensive.
Doesn't stick around for very long. The adhesive is of poor quality, despite the fact that the bandage material is strong and durable. Although the bandage appears to be effective in the photo I uploaded, it is not. When the bandage gets wet or is applied to high-stress areas such as the knees and elbows, it loses its stickiness. br>br>I recommend that you look for something else, most likely a name-brand product. version of the brand I should have paid more attention to the reviews on this occasion.
The dimensions are as stated on the box. The issue I have, and it's a big one, is that the bandage won't stay on the skin for more than a few hours, especially if it's on a joint like a knee or elbow. I'm now kicking myself for buying two boxes.
Even in the most extreme conditions, the fabric is strong and will not fall apart. To avoid infection, I recommend changing them at least once a day because they are made of fabric and are not waterproof. They're also reasonably priced, with 30 bandages for less than the name brand's price; the price was the factor that pushed this product up to four stars from four.
Because fabric bandages are durable, I occasionally use them on my son when he is participating in sports. This is a good one! It fits over knees and stays on for the duration of a soccer game. They are extremely sticky, and the fabric is extremely durable! I'm going to place an order for these.
