What are finger bandages?

Poste bandages, sometimes known as butterfly bandages , are specially designed to glue the finger outlines safely. Their shape of the hourglass allows them to fold around rounded peaks without creating unpleasant folds or affecting adhesion. When folding, a cap usually creates a thimble. Their porous binding and flexibility allow your fingers to breathe while allowing the bandage to safely wrap around your finger without sacrificing strength or durability. Non -toxic glue usually covers the inner surface to allow it to stick to the skin. Some dressings also use strong sterile padding, absorbent gauze, while others use only the bandage material itself to absorb blood and other fluids.

Since they come in many sizes, finger bandages can be applied in many situations. The most visible is to accommodate the changing thickness of the fingers and inch and the size of the fingers of adults and children. The dressings can also be used on palms and ballsHands where it fits in the outline of the hand, but will not relax or fall with repeated folding, crumping or stretching as the hand moves.

materials that are usually used in finger bandages can also be found in other specially shaped dressings that require flexibility or porosity. This may include shoulder bandages, arm bandages, foot bandages and eye bandages. Their woven material corresponds to the limbs and facial areas that generally include a large amount of bending and mobility and can be wrapped for further security.

Alternatives to finger bandages may include liquid bandages that can be sprayed or applied directly to the wound to form a sterile sealant that giant directly on the skin. Cohesive bandages and crepe bandages are more viable alternatives. These can be cut or shaped to match the damaged areas and do not require a sufficiently strong adhesive, as they usually do.

Butyfly bandages are a common clamp in many sets of first aid and even in a hospital environment. They can be purchased in most stores, drug and food stores-and usually occur in sections of health or personal care. While fingertips can be useful, they are only meant for processing small wounds and surface cuts or as emergency first aid. Stricter injuries often require consultation and care for physicians.
