Melolin Cushioned Dressing Pads are ideal for protecting minor wounds. These comfortable pads are low adherent, highly absorbent, and designed to absorb excess fluid. They protect the injured area to prevent bacteria from entering, which can lead to infections. To use, wash hands before and after treating the wound. Gently clean and dry the wound and surrounding skin. Remove the dressing from the pouch. Apply the Melolin pad to the wound with the shiny film placed directly onto the wound. Secure the Melolin pad in place with tape or a retention bandage. Change the dressing daily or more often according to the condition of the wound.
