3M tegaderm Roll 2" x 11Yd Transparent Film Dressing (Each), 16002

I have type 1 diabetes and use two medical devices, which are lifesavers in the Texas summer heat. My insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor (which checks my blood sugar for me instead of requiring me to stick my fingers in a meter all day). Any medical equipment or medication patches will stay put for days, even when exposed to water, sweat, and other elements, and the best part is that this tape is as thin as skin and will not pull skin off. br>br>First, cut the tape to the desired length. Next, look at the sides opposite the "zipper" in the center; there should be about a half inch where you can hold the tape's sides to position it. Then, while holding those non-sticky parts, peel away the white backing. Stick the sticky sides together and place the zipper over the area to be covered, sticky-sides together. the wrong way up Finally, peel the two zipper pieces away from the center and smooth the tape down lightly, and you're done!.

This is by far the best bandage for road rash. Going about 25 MPH into asphalt and gravel, I took a header off my bike. Cuts, bruises, scrapes, and nasty road rash (which is similar to a scrape but larger and deeper) covered him from head to toe. Gauze, bandaids, medical tape, and other such items were used to try to repair the damage - which ended up being a complete disaster. Gauze clung to the wounds, leaked through, irritated my skin, and didn't stay in the right places at the same time. Tegaderm is a type of plant that is found in the genus T Easy to put on, stays in place even in water (swim workouts, showers, baths, etc. ), and keeps wounds clean and dry. In areas where people are more mobile - the palm of your hand, for example - Because nothing is going to stick perfectly there, you may need to replace on a daily basis. On parts that aren't as mobile or as flat as the rest of the body - The Tegaderm, for example, can last several days on one side of the leg. My wounds healed perfectly flat, without any bumps, hypertropic scars, keloids, or infection. Because you can cut as little or as much as you need with the roll form, it's ideal. This is also significantly less expensive than purchasing the same product from a pharmacy (which does not sell roles - see below). Only the little square pieces are overpriced ($30 for 6 tiny squares). This is something that every active person should have on hand in case of an accident.

the- role. By the way, I really like this tegaderm. the- role. I've been using the 4"x6" patch up until now, and while it's great, if you have a smaller wound and want to apply a smaller patch, you'd have to cut the 4"x 6" in half, which made it extremely difficult to apply. This 2-inch-wide roll, on the other hand, is the ideal solution. It's simple to use, and you can even cut it in half vertically for a 1"x(or whatever size you require). br>br>Right now, I'm nursing a quarter-inch cut on my finger. sized 3rd degree burn (inner forearm run in with the tip of a heat gun), and this tape allows me to keep it properly dressed without having to wear a big bandage that draws attention (don't people always ask what you did? " With tegaderm, you don't even notice it's there. Definitely a good investment.

The frame style is also what I use to keep a blood sugar sensor in place. This final roll, however, must be faulty - At the very least, I'm hoping it's just this one roll, as I rely on this tape a lot. The actual tape / onion skin layer on the most recent roll I purchased frequently sticks to the outside layer. Also, the outer layer in the middle where the two sections meet is stuck together so tightly that I can't usually separate them and have to remove the outer layer from the corner, which frequently sticks to the tape / onion skin layer and rips or bunches it up. After a day or two, the bunched-up area can become extremely itchy. In the end, I waste a lot of this tape. br>br> br>br>I'm hoping this is just a lemon of a roll because I don't want to go back to Opposite because it's not as thin or as easy to remove. Tegaderm's final roll, however, has left me extremely disappointed. Maybe I just need to be more picky about which seller I deal with?.

Cuts, burns, scrapes, and bedsores are just a few of the skin-related injuries I treat with it. In every case, the wound healed quickly and left no scar. My finger was cut all the way down to the bone on two occasions. If I had gone to the emergency room, I would have been given expensive, painful stitches, and healing would have taken a long time, leaving a scar. Instead, I immediately applied peroxide to the injured skin and wrapped this tape around the cut, pulling the cut edges of the skin together tightly. I didn't take off the tape for at least 3 to 5 days, and I was able to go about my normal activities without pain or injury. The wound had completely healed and left no scar when I removed the tape! It's a fantastic product that comes in a variety of sizes, so choose the one that's right for you. This strip tape is one of my favorites because it's so easy to cut to the size I need. br>br>While in a VA hospital, my 93-year-old mother passed away. year- The bedsores on my father's body were extremely painful. I requested that the nurses use this product to treat the bedsores. They thought I was insane, but they followed my instructions. I asked my father if the tape was still working a few hours later. He stated that he had no idea because he was unable to feel anything! If you can't feel the bedsores, that means the tape is working, I joked. The nurses were so impressed with how effective this tape was that they had a Director of Nurses meeting at his bedside to personally look at and confirm that this tape was responsible for immediately stopping the pain from his bedsores and allowing them to heal quickly.
