For hygienic reasons, it is recommended that you change Standard First Aid Dressings daily.
We recommend contacting a medical professional under the following circumstances:
Of course, whenever you have questions or are uncertain it is advisable to get in contact with a medical professional.
You should contact a medical professional if you recognise any signs of infection. This is not only the occurrence of pus but also swelling, redness, heat, pain, itching or burning. In case of infection the wound will need medical care and special medical treatment.
If you have very sensitive skin we recommend using the Elastoplast Sensitive products. These plasters are especially developed for sensitive skin and are very skin friendly and hypoallergenic.
The Elastoplast Aqua Protect Strips as well as the Heavy Duty Waterproof Fabric range are waterproof and will not go off while washing or showering. All Elastoplast Plastic plasters as well as the Junior plasters are water resistant.
A fabric plaster is a plaster that is constructed mostly with soft fabrics, rather than a plastic backing. Elastoplast fabric plasters are extra robust due to a heavy weave and flexibility that lets them conform to the shape of your body. A fabric plaster will generally stick for longer than a plastic plaster, while providing the same sealed off protection. For cuts and grazes on knees and elbows, try Elastoplast Fabric Extra Flexible Plasters, specially designed to bend and flex to any corner or crevice.
