Revainrating 5 out of 5

If I could give 100 stars I would!

I ordered them based solely on a customer named Dawn who bought them for the same problem I was having and needed them for. I had a ruptured cyst on my back which the surgeon drained. Little did I know the hole would drain for a while. And because of where she's into me, I also work as a baker, so I'm in a hot kitchen, going through all the shifts and sweating all over. NO patch or bandage has held for the past hour or two. It was the PERFECT SIZE for my surgical wound, not too big and just the right size. It stayed 2 days even while showering and working. It says it can stay for up to 7 days I believe but I don't know if I can bring myself to leave it that long - I feel after 3 days with the same bandage stuck to me, unclean. I can't tell this seller how much I appreciate them selling this type of wound dressing at this price - I've checked at my local pharmacy and online and either couldn't find the right size or it's $80-$100 less than what comes in this box of 10 bandages. I also noticed that some customer reviews said they received an expired box and that it was the wrong size - too small. The box I received will be on time (exp. 2023) and the size of the bandage is 2 x 2 overall including the outer edge of the bandage. The actual padding in the center is 1" x 1" and is VERY small. I would imagine this wouldn't work for anything other than something similar to what I need it for. In other words, your wound cannot be larger than 3/4 inch to accommodate your needs. I hope this helps and thanks again to Don the customer who wrote her review which helped me a lot and thanks to the seller for not selling this headband for an exorbitant amount like most places do . Damn how much these things can cost, especially for people who constantly need this type of dressing for ongoing healing/wound care. We recommend.
