Adhesive Bandage – How Can It Boost Your Wound Healing Process
Small injuries like cuts and scratches are a part of day to day life, all it takes is the slightest slip of focus. Cuts and scratches are areas of damage on the surface of the skin. A cut is a line of damage that can go through the skin and into the muscle tissues below, whereas a scratch is surface damage that does not penetrate the lower tissues Cuts and scratches may bleed or turn red, become infected, and leave scars.
HealAid is a medicated dressing used for injuries not serious enough for a full sized dressing like a small to medium cut. These bandages are thin and flexible strips which adhere to the skin and protect the wound. It is the best first-aid to stop minor injuries from becoming worse.
Protecting a cut or minor wound with an adhesive bandage is very important.
Apply HealAid Promotes Better Skin Healing
If a new wound is covered with medicated dressing, it will keep skin cells from drying out and forming scales, which minimizes the risk of scarring at the site. It also significantly reduces the risk of infection, because it prevents germs, dirt and water from contacting the wound; thereby preventing infections.
It also protects against re-injury.
Why HealAid?
The quality of the medicated dressing used is highly important. If the adhesion of the bandage used is not good then the wound might not be protected but it should also not be too sticky.
HealAid has a long lasting and durable adhesion which is not too sticky to be uncomfortable on skin. It comes in two variants- Regular and Washproof. You can use the Regular variant for the areas which do not come in contact with water too often. Washproof one can be used for areas and wounds which are at risk of exposure to moisture or water.
The non-stick absorbent pad in the middle of HealAid also contains benzalkonium chloride which according to studies facilitates wound healing.
Best Way To Apply HealAid
- Clean the wound properly with soap and warm water..
- Then apply HealAid Medicated Dressing (Regular or Washproof- depending on the area of application) on the wound.
- As soon as the dressing gets dirty or there is a need to replace it, clean the affected area again and apply a fresh strip of HealAid again!
