Wounds, no matter how minor, should be protected for better healing of the skin. Covering the injury prevents external contaminants from entering and potentially infecting it.
Whenever wounds leave the skin open, it is advisable to cover them with some dressing. Often, the area where the wound is located is one that tends to come into contact with water or dirt, so the choice of dressing is crucial to prevent it from coming off or getting wet, thus failing to provide the protection the wound needs.
Continuous Plastic Dressings are recommended for these types of situations. Their characteristics are:
- Breathable and hypoallergenic.
- Made with a waterproof and plastic material that prevents water and dirt from passing through.
- Allow you to continue with your daily tasks without stopping the protection of your skin.
- Are easily tolerated by the skin and have micro-perforations that allow the wound to breathe.
- Have a soft and highly absorbent pad for blood and secretions.
