Nexcare Waterproof Cushioned Bandages, Knee & Elbow, 2 x 4 in, 8 Count

Nexcare bandages are a quality product and one that I want in my first-aid kit at home. I was updating my kit and found these online and decided to order them. They are nicely-cushioned. Not those barely-there cotton pads that you find in the cheapie bandages in the dollar stores. They are also a large size for those larger cuts that scare you to death when your kiddos come in the door yelling, "Mom, Mom!" Or like my husband just did a few minutes ago, coincidentally. It's nice to have a band aid around that's going to do the job and stay on! I'll be ordering again, but hopefully not too, too soon...

I would definitely recommend, but you should know:1) While the bandage itself is relatively water proof, I wouldn't say it's *shower-proof*. Cool to warm water occasionally making contact will not remove the bandage, however a humid shower for even 5 minutes will make it peel off. This may not be the case with flatter stretches of skin, but this was my experience on my hand.2) If you are using this post surgery, you may want to shave away any hair on the area, because even pulling at an angle as recommend will still be a struggle. Maybe use warm water when removing the bandage if possible?3) On a positive note, this is probably the best adhesive I've ever seen on a bandage. The material itself follows so closely to my skin that I can see the creases on the skin of my palm and wrist through it. It makes it easy to move without concern of it peeling up.4) Another good thing: the padding genuinely is thick for a bandage despite being so form fitting. It genuinely protects the covered area from direct pressure.If your using it on a flexing area, I would expect at least using 1 per day. You might get away with longer if it's on a flatter area of skin like your forearm.

These are great! And they are completely waterproof! They never come loose or unstuck sitting in a tub of bubble bath or just taking a shower! They are my go to. I had a very bad, unsuccessful back surgery, and live in pain every day of my life. I wear a low dose fentanyl patch and I use these to hold them on and they are great! Thanks

These work great as far as keep water out, painful to take off but keeps wound protected.

Very good product. Stays in place and kept wound dry

Stays on for an entire round of golf and longer if you want it to

Didn’t stay stuck to the skin on my heel, even with sock holding it in place. Don’t use on bodily areas that bend. Good cushion. Good bandage for flat skin surfaces, but NOT CURVED ONES.

Worked real nice after surgery
