Fast healing bandages for fingers - Urgo

Their hydrocolloid technology creates a moist environment around the wound, which is conducive to rapid healing. Like a second skin, URGO Rapid Healing bandages protect the wound and relieve pain discreetly. Thanks to their adapted shape, they stay in place for several days and can be removed painlessly.

Instructions for use:

Must be applied by an adult for those under 16.

1. Clean and disinfect the wound and its surroundings with an antiseptic solution (alcohol-free). Stop any bleeding and dry with a sterile compress.
2. Open the sachet, remove the dressing. Warm the dressing between your hands to make it more conformable.
3. Remove the first protective tab without touching the central adhesive part of the dressing and place the hydrocolloid dressing centered on the wound. The wound must be completely covered by the hydrocolloid pad (cream to ocher colored central part).
4. Remove the second tab by carefully smoothing and pressing the edges of the dressing to increase adhesion.

The dressing should not remain in place for more than 2 to 3 days; it must be removed if it has not come off on its own. Renew the dressing according to the instructions for use. The average treatment duration is 6-8 days.

Precautions:

• Do not stretch the dressing when applying; do not cut.
• Single-use dressing, do not reposition the dressing once applied and do not reuse the same dressing (risk of infection).
• In case of sticky hydrocolloid residues on the skin, soaking in water is recommended: the adhesive will swell, lose adhesion, and detach.
• Do not apply a dressing or remove an already applied dressing and consult a doctor:

– if the wound worsens or shows no improvement within 6 days of treatment,

– in case of signs of infection (redness, pain, warmth, swelling around the wound, pus, etc.)

– In case of foreign bodies in the wound, significant bleeding, bites, punctures with a sharp and/or dirty object

– or in case of doubt or discomfort.

• Diabetic patients are advised to use hydrocolloid dressings only under medical or nursing supervision.
• For any facial wound, it is recommended for aesthetic reasons to seek medical advice.
• Do not use these dressings for more than 30 consecutive days.
• Store dressings in their original box.
