Frequently asked questions
Does this dressing allow for showering?
Yes, the 3M Tegaderm +Pad features a waterproof transparent film. This allows you to shower or bathe while keeping the wound site protected and secure.
Will the pad stick to the wound?
No, it is specifically designed with a non-adherent absorbent pad. This unique feature ensures the dressing does not stick to the wound site, promoting healing with significantly less pain and trauma during dressing changes.
Is this dressing effective against bacteria?
