MED PRIDE 4" x 4" Bordered Gauze-Island Dressing| 25 Pack-Individually Packed Pouches| Wound Dressing with Adhesive, Breathable Borders| Sterile & Highly Absorbent| Latex-Free 6'' x 6'' 60886 25

Pro: there are sizes to fit all wound care needs. The dressing pads are absorbent. Con: the sticky parts along the edges are a little on the thin side it would be more useful if there were more sticky parts especially when you're trying to wrap this rascal around the side of a foot and you need to make it stick good. It's not a showstopper however as you can easily cover this with gauze to make sure and keep it in place.

Edit - I ordered a second pack to help deal with a nonhealing wound and the quality has completely changed. The fabric begins to tear apart within just a few hours. The adhesive becomes goopy and gummy and almost melts into your skin. Even the packaging was different. I ordered these only a few weeks after the original order. I'm going to try once more but if the quality is terrible I'm going to need to switch brands. Original - This product is a great substitute for people who have a sensitivity to medipore tape. It can secure absorbent dressings to wounds and has a similar hold to medipore take but is easier to put on and much more gentle to remove. I've tried quite a few different brands of island dressings and while this can still cause some irritation it is by far the most gentle I've found for my skin that is still light, breathable, and holds well.

Bandages work great, actual bandage size is probably closer to 4.5x4.5 for the 6x6 option, but that's plenty. The adhesive is STRONG, almost too strong. Taking this off hurt a TON. I needed to use this on my side, and it stuck amazing no matter what movements I was making, but I needed to douse the thing in water to take it off. Even with the water, the adhesive stuck extremely well. My main downside is the red marks this left. Since I had to borderline rip the bandage off, the adhesive left a large red square on my side. If not for that, this would be a 5 star bandage.

Like so far, easy to use and soft

I have a wound that I will have the rest of my life and sometimes it will take me 30 minutes bandaging it I'm also allergic to adhesive but yet I can use this and it is so much easier and more comfortable and saves me the one thing I can't afford to waste cuz I'll never get it back and that's my time I am so grateful that I discovered this and that Amazon is so much more affordable than the stores and I just want to say it's done more than save me money it's giving me back part of my life that I spend in a room trying to hide and cover something that's embarrassing and painful it's made it a little bit more tolerable for that I'm thankful I recommend this product all day
