Adhesive Dressing (bandages) in Nagpur
An adhesive dressing bandage is a sterile or semi-sterile medical dressing designed to cover and protect minor cuts, wounds, abrasions, or surgical sites. It consists of a soft, absorbent pad that covers the wound and an adhesive backing that secures the dressing to the surrounding skin without the need for additional tape or bandages. These dressings are easy to apply, provide protection against dirt and bacteria, and support the wound healing process. Adhesive dressing bandages come in various shapes, sizes, and materials to suit different wound types and locations. Some are water-resistant, hypoallergenic, or breathable, depending on the design and intended use.
