So I recently tripped and fell, as one does, and somehow managed to split my knee open so dramatically that it took ten stitches, using thread and knots reminiscent of something Ahab might have done, just to hold it closed.
It was gnarly.
It was also kind of big and had to be kept covered 24/7. Gauze and tape are fussy, it's a weird place to begin with being over a giant joint, and my skin doesn't like adhesives in general.
Looked here, these looked good, ordered them. And I gotta say, to get got me to write a review, and I rarely write reviews.
- Adhesive was non-irritating for me! This rarely happens.
- Adhesive is very secure. If it's stretched when applying it, it will be likely to curl if the edges rub on something, like clothes or furniture.
- The pad is totally non-stick
- It's flexible. I found that it worked best if I applied the bandage while the joint was bent, because while the wound was healing I didn't want it running against the pad.
I knew I'd need to change bandages daily for at least 2 weeks (the normal 7 day stitches? Not these lol) so it made sense to get a bunch. I'm so glad I found these. They made a difficult time much easier.
