What are blister plasters?
These blister plasters are hydrocolloid dressings made to protect and create a natural, moist healing environment for blisters. Each pack contains 5 blister plasters suitable for a variety of blister sizes.
How do blister plasters work?
The blister plasters absorb excess fluid from the blister, which forms a protective gel cushion that shields the blister from both friction and bacteria, which can promote faster healing.
Are these suitable as heel blister plasters?
The flexible design of these blister plasters allows them to conform to the heel shape, which gives effective relief and protection from friction and bacteria.
Can I use blister plasters on spots?
While made for blisters, a blister plaster can also absorb pus from spots; however, plasters and creams specifically made for acne are recommended.
How long should I keep a blister plaster on?
It is recommended to leave the blister plaster in place until it naturally comes off, typically within a few days, to allow for optimal healing of the blister.
Can these plasters be used in first aid kits?
These blister plasters are an excellent addition to any first aid kit, especially for workplaces, active workplaces or sports.
How should I prepare the skin before application?
