Band-Aid Brand Assorted Pro Heal Bandages, Hydrocolloid Pad, 15 Count

I recently had a total hip replacement surgery and the incision after three weeks got infected at the top it opened up. My surgeon told me to get some sort of soap with something in it. Well, this Band-Aid has that particular stuff in it and it soaks the infection and wetness out I've been wearing and changing my Band-Aids twice a day it's healing remarkably. I don't want a major scar. I have documented every day for two weeks the changes in my boo boo and how it's healing and the white infection is diminishing and more blood tissue is showing. I have to wear these for two more additional weeks as it continues to heal from the inside out. I tried a generic brand to try and save money but it burned my skin. The Bandaid Brand adhesive is gentle and it loads up the “ wetness “ and then I can feel it's time to change. The problem is it's hard to find the large enough to cover the hole so I don't have to change it twice. It's expensive and I wish my surgeon would have supplied me with these Band-Aids. I'm on disability paying eight dollars is expensive and they do make these generic but they hurt they like make my skin raw. These are much more comfortable and they move with my leg. If Band-Aids wants to send me some I sure would appreciate it. I went to my surgeons office for him to check it and he actually asked me, “ hey, what brand is this and is that pus or what?” No, silly it's Bandaid and it's the Hydrocolloid pad working.”. He said wow, so he is going to tell his colleagues and patients who hopefully don't get their incisions opened up, but it happens. He just told me to get the soap he didn't know that bandaids also had it in their.. The generic hurt my skin and it did soak up but got so tight I could scream! Once I changed it over and over I now have a boo boo from the generic bandages peeling my skin away. I won't gross you out and show you the opened up incision, but the picture below you can see around it that there is dry skin pulled skin is all from a generic Bandage. Not the bandaid brand. Buy Bandaid brand. It stays in place and moves with your skin and the best thing it's healing and keeping clean my site. Check with your Surgeon but he has me keeping this covered for another two weeks using Bandaid Brand and keeping it clean, which it's doing plus washing with a medical soap. He said it will have to heal from the inside out.

These are the best healing bandaids I have ever used. I had a deep and circular wide pressure wound on my heel after a surgery and 3 weeks in a cast. The Dr suggested I go to an infectious disease specialist. I chose not to. I started using these bandaids and after 3 weeks of just keeping the wound clean and applying these. I am about a week from total healing from the inside.
