Frequently asked questions
Is this honey medical-grade?
Yes, it is impregnated with 100% sterile Manuka honey sourced from the nectar and pollen of the New Zealand Leptospermum scoparium plant, specifically intended for clinical and medical use.
Do I need a secondary dressing?
Yes, because the dressing is designed with a porous structure to allow for exudate passage, it requires a secondary dressing to secure the sheet in place and absorb any drainage.
What types of wounds can this treat?
It is suitable for a wide range of acute and chronic wounds, including:
- Full and partial-thickness wounds
- Leg and diabetic foot ulcers
- Pressure injuries
- Surgical and trauma wounds
- First and second-degree burns
- Minor cuts, abrasions, and scalds
How often should I change the dressing?
The dressing can be left in place for up to 7 days, depending on the level of exudate and the condition of the wound as determined by a healthcare professional.
Is this product latex-free?
Yes, the TheraHoney wound dressing is completely latex-free, making it a safe choice for those with latex sensitivities.
Does the porous design help with healing?
Absolutely. The porous structure is a key functional feature that manages exudate by allowing it to pass through to a secondary dressing, which helps prevent periwound maceration (skin damage from excessive moisture) while keeping the wound environment moist to promote healing.
Does it assist with wound cleaning?
Yes, TheraHoney promotes autolytic debridement, which is the body’s natural process of breaking down and removing dead or damaged tissue, supported by the moist environment provided by the Manuka honey.
Is this safe for sensitive skin?
The dressing is designed to protect the surrounding skin from moisture-related complications. However, as with all wound care products, application should be performed or supervised by a healthcare professional to ensure it is appropriate for your specific skin and wound condition.
How many sheets come in a box?
Each box contains 10 individual sterile sheets, each measuring 4 x 5 inches.
Can this be used for minor home injuries?
Yes, it is versatile enough for home healthcare settings and is effective for treating minor abrasions, cuts, and scalds, though it is always recommended to consult a healthcare professional for guidance on proper wound management.
