The different elements that should make up a good first aid kit can be found in any pharmacy. As the first aid kit is being completed, other items that are not essential can be added, but they are very useful for different situations, such as the strips that are not only used for cuts, but there are also products on the market that can be adapted to all types of injuries.
This is the case with Hydro Active AMP strips®, which are very useful in the case of blisters or corns on the feet, and a common bandage should not be used in these situations, as the blisters need another type of treatment for healing. This means that they are impervious to bacteria and contaminants but not water, making them the ideal blister dressing.
The strips absorb the fluid in the blister and a layer of cushioned gel forms to help relieve the pain. In addition, the action of the hydrocolloid accelerates the healing of the wounds, because it favours the creation of a moist environment.
