Choosing the Right Plasters for Different Types of Injuries

When it comes to minor injuries, having the right plaster on hand can make all the difference in the world. Whether it's a small cut, a blister, or a sprained wrist, choosing the appropriate plaster can aid in the healing process and provide the comfort needed for a speedy recovery.

This blog will introduce you to the world of plasters, exploring the various types available and how to select the perfect one for different injuries.

What are Plasters?

Plasters, often referred to as bandages or adhesive strips, are essential items in any first aid kit. They come in different shapes, sizes, and materials to cater to a variety of injuries. The key is to match the plaster to the specific type of injury for optimal results.

Types of Plaster

1.    Belladonna Plaster Large

            Belladonna plasters are renowned for their pain-relieving properties. The large-sized Belladonna plaster is ideal for injuries where localised pain relief is necessary, such as muscle strains or sprains. The natural soothing effect of belladonna can provide comfort and aid in the healing process.

2.    Compeed Blister Mix Pack 5 PC

            Blisters can be painful and inconvenient. The Compeed Blister Mix Pack, consisting of 5 pieces, is designed to provide relief and protection. These plasters act like a second skin, offering a cushioning effect that speeds up the healing of blisters while preventing further friction.

3.    Compeed Bunions 5

            Bunions can cause discomfort and irritation. The Compeed Bunions plaster, available in a pack of 5, offers targeted protection and relief for bunion-related pain. Its specialised design ensures a secure fit over the affected area, promoting a more comfortable healing process.

4.    Elastoplast Aqua Protect 20S

            For injuries that may come in contact with water, such as cuts or abrasions on fingers or hands, the Elastoplast Aqua Protect is an excellent choice. With 20 plasters in a pack, these waterproof bandages provide a reliable barrier against water, dirt, and bacteria, ensuring a hygienic healing environment.

5.    Elastoplast Everyday Wrist Support 1

            Wrist injuries require extra support. The Elastoplast Everyday Wrist Support not only provides stabilisation but also offers a comfortable fit for everyday activities. The integrated plaster ensures that the support stays in place, promoting healing for wrist sprains or strains.

6.    Elastoplast Fabric Asstd Plasters 40S

            A versatile option for various injuries, the Elastoplast Fabric Asstd Plasters come in a pack of 40.
