Subject: RE: Swim with a waterproof bandage?Wow, super old thread...but Tegaderm still can't be beat!
Tegaderm is a branded product created by 3M. So any transparent wound dressing manufactured by 3M is using Tegaderm. You can get it in multiple sizes, usually at drugstores like CVS in the US. However, it is very expensive to buy that way. I recommend searching on Amazon and getting larger pieces and packs for a cheaper price per unit.
Tegaderm comes in a lot of varieties these days, and the right one for you is going to depend on what kind of wound you're talking about. I usually am trying to cover road rash, so I still with the Transparent Film Dressing. But if you're talking about some kind of lacerations, or something else, I would suggest asking a doctor or some other kind of medical professional. |
