Tuesday wound Care

Hey, I’m going to sound like a shill for a minute, but promise I’m not. Just want folks to be aware of a good option. I recently did a few more miles in some boots I hadn’t worn for a bit. Essentially pealed a 3-4 inch chunk of skin off my heal. I happen to have a one piece of tegaderm my mother in law [nurse]friend had given us ages ago. This stuff is amazing. I went from immobile to not even aware I had a blister in a day. Highly highly highly recommend adding this to your emergency first aid kit.

I actually built out one of the recommend deep first aid kits from "the prepared dot com" before they kind of went to sleep. If that site was active, I’d have suggested this get added to the supply list.

At the same time I was getting the blister from hell, my sister in law dropped a boiling pot of water on her foot, and the ER essentially complimented her on applying this stuff and sent her on her way with more.

So, really good wound care for surface/skin injuries. You apply it and leave it on for days. Change when it lifts.
