EalionMed Hydrocolloid Bandage, Hydrocolloid Wound Dressing Thin Type 4'' x 4'' for Light Exudate Wound, Pressure Ulcer, Bed Sore, Surgical Wound,Superficial Wound, 10 Pack

Perfect, wonderful, should be an all first aid kits

These are the "closest similar" ones I could find to expensive "coloplast comfeels". Since I have a difficult semi-genetic BMI of 31%, I have to use these for protecting my thigh skin from my damaging non-stop hyperhidrosis ( sweating ) during walking ! However, I don't think I would want to keep these on for more than 10-12 hrs. From years-past usage of various hydrocolloids - including these -, it seems the longer that skin dressings "bond" to the skin with sweat, the more uncomfortable they are to remove later. ( I also use strips of them to protect a couple of my knuckles during tight-glove use ) I wouldn't be able to attempt daily physical activity or occassional summertime outdoors, if these ones did not exist & available via amazon.

I've been using DuoDerm for my wounds and it has been absolutely amazing. But DuoDerm is ridiculously expensive and I had to look for other alternatives out there. That's how I landed on this one. First and foremost, this is way more bang for buck than DuoDerm. For the same price of 3 DuoDerm sheets/bandages you get 10 of these! So from a price perspective this takes the gold star. You can also cut these to size which is what I do. It's just as easy to peel the bandage when it is cut - it's like peeling a sticker. Tip: cut in round shapes because the bandage can get caught/lift easier if it has sharp corners. If you decide not to cut each sheet, there is a pull tab for you to easily peel it for use. The feel is great - it feels like skin. It also does not hurt my open wound. It does keep the wound moist in order to foster a healing environment and does prevent me from scabbing. I change it daily to keep it clean. The reason for 1 star off is that these don't stay on as well as DuoDerm does. Although not always, sometimes my bandages start falling off throughout the day, so I do have to change it 2-3 times in a 24 hour period. The other reason is that tangibly it doesn't feel as good as DuoDerm. Overall this is a great alternative and one I will stick to due to the price point and the effectiveness. Love it and happy I found it.

Great for skin tears. I keep a box available as my father is 94 and has very fragile skin that tears easily. These patches cut the healing time in half.

These are great because they are easy to use and they stay put without being difficult to remove. They stay out and don’t flop around 30 minutes after you put them on. Nice!
