Where you used to stick an ordinary plaster to a blister on your foot, today you choose a blister plaster. This suggests that the need is high. Badly fitted shoes or slipping stockings that lead to blistering are the culprits. If they have blistered, a blister plaster will help reduce pressure and further friction. Without a blister plaster, even marathon runners with poorly fitting shoes could not continue running.
What is a blister plaster?
By definition is a Blister plaster a plaster that is more suitable than conventional plasters for the initial treatment of blisters on feet or hands.
The hygienic quick bandage for bladders has a pressure-relieving effect and seals the bladder airtight against further stress or chafing. Different manufacturers offer blister plasters of different quality.
Shapes, types & types
There are different shapes, types and types Blister plaster, where slight differences in quality and different sizes play a role.
What they have in common is that after application they reduce the pressure pain and enable you to continue walking. In terms of quality, however, there are differences in the practical test. Two well-known manufacturers promise good durability and long adhesion for their blister plasters. But this is not guaranteed with every blister plaster. So that you cannot see that a blister plaster has been applied, blister plasters are transparent or skin-colored.
Thanks to their construction, they should keep dirt, germs and water away from the bladder. At the same time, regeneration is possible more quickly due to the reduction in friction after the application of the blister plaster. As blisters dry faster in the air, you shouldn't wear the blister plasters for too long. If the bladder is already open, a fresh blister plaster is applied in the morning. It is best to remove the blister plaster at night. One manufacturer offers skin-colored blister plasters especially for toes and others for the heel.
The price is quite respectable for five pieces, but the utility value is high. The pressure relief can be felt with blister plasters from both manufacturers. In addition, bubble gels and pressure-stop pads are offered, which can be cut to size. Everyone has to try out for themselves whether these are useful. The transparent hydrocoloid blister plasters from both manufacturers are interesting because they can absorb escaping blister fluid. They form a cushioned layer on the already opened bladder and relieve the foot of further pressure.
Structure, function & mode of operation
Depending on whether you have it with a specially tailored Blister plaster for toes and fingers or the heel, the shape of the blister plaster is slightly different.
The construction of blister plasters is essentially based on that of wound plasters. In contrast, a blister plaster is made from a transparent film that supports normal movements on the foot. Thanks to the smooth surface, the blister plaster does not stick to the stocking or the edge of the shoe and does not come off.
A thin wound pad provides pressure relief and significant pain relief. Large or small blister plasters can also provide some protection against larger sores on the foot. A blister can appear at any point on the foot or hands and be differently expanded. Under the foot - through which the body ventilates and releases liquids into the environment - a particularly high level of adhesion is required so that the blister plaster does not come off after a short time.
Thanks to the application of hydrocolloids on the plaster pad, the blister remains soft, is covered in a sterile manner and is promoted by the blister plaster in the healing process.
Medical & health benefits
The medical and health benefits at Blister plaster is similar to that of the adhesive plaster. Pain-free, pressure relief, sterile wound covering and the avoidance of injuries to deeper layers of the skin are in the foreground with blister plasters.
The blister plaster can be carried in a hiking backpack or while strolling through town as an individually packaged or easily cut wound dressing. So you can apply the blister plaster when you feel sore. With a blister plaster applied in good time, blistering can be prevented or delayed.
The large gel or hydrocolloid filling protects the rubbed area and cushions it. A blister plaster prevents blisters that are already open from becoming dirty and relieves pain.
