IYKYK these are essential for wound healing

They're not the best in the world but they they're good for the money you pay for them you know if you want top of the line s*** you got to pay out the ass for it this is pretty good cheap and good

If you're looking for something like this that has adhesive on the back I would keep looking. The instructions even clearly say that a secondary dressing is required to hold this dressing on. That's unfortunate too because these foam wound dressings are quite nice. I can't really use a secondary dressing over something like this because in the past I have fallen asleep with such a dressing and no matter what I've tried using to hold something like this over my wound, always winds up damaging my wound even further. What has always worked the best is a foam dressing called, "Mepilex," that can be stuck straight onto the wound thanks to it's, "Safetac," technology. Yes, believe it or not such a thing exists, and even though it can be stuck straight onto the wound it comes off incredibly easy without damaging the wound. At least, that's been the case for me. I was excited to see this wound dressing though because the Mepilex wound dressings can cost up to and over $60 for just 5 of them. Anyway, getting these wasn't a total loss. It has led to me finding something else that should be just like the Mepilex at less than half of the cost. For anyone else who might be interested to know that, the other wound dressing like this that I've found is called, "MedVance TM Silicone - Silicone Adhesive Foam Absorbent Dressing." And it costs $24.99 for a box of 5 of them just like these.

And do what they're supposed to do. Please note that they are NOT adhesive! I know that should seem obvious, but other reviewers have said that they *are* which is why I bought them instead of the million dollar mepilex ones. Buy the million dollar mepilex ones if you need adhesive; buy these if you have a support system in place

This bandage has been excellent in terms of value and use, once you know what you're dealing with. Things to note before purchase: 1. When Amazon tells you that this is packaged in a box that tells you what it is and asks if you'd like it to be in an Amazon box instead, choose the Amazon box. Having it shipped without that option means that the unsecured box of bandages gets a sticker slapped on it and put in the mail as is. No tape keeping the box closed and no protection from destruction or other damage of your sterile bandages. 2. This is a cuttable and adhesive silver alginate dressing. However, the film covering the adhesive side does not have any edge to grasp it by, and it is quite firmly attached. I discovered that it is much easier to release the film from the dressing if you lightly rub the film with a rubbing alcohol-moistened cotton ball. This allows that film to come up a bit and be peeled off to expose the adhesive without ruining the dressing. Also, if you wish to remove the dressing before it's used up, you can moisten the edge of the dressing where it is attached to the skin with water or rubbing alcohol and gently remove it without tugging on your healing skin. All in all, it has done what I've needed but I wish that the use instructions for it had been better to keep me from having to struggle to find a way to use this as advertised before discovering the rubbing alcohol trick.

Exactly what my physician at wound care was using on me. Price was fair and a bit cheaper than where they were directing me to buy it at. Also, it was sent to me the same day. Hard to beat that. Great Job Amazon!

Buena calidad

Waited two days after surgeon orded this. What's in the box looks nothing like Amazon display. Irresponsible packaging and instructions. Paper in box different than box printing . Junk. Do not buy. Decepcetion deliberate
