Comments about Kendall Telfa AMD Antimicrobial Adhesive Bandage, 4in. x 5in., 10 ea:
Reading the description, I thought it was what was needed, however his nurse said they wouldn't allow his particular skin wounds to breathe so I discontinued using them. I'm sure they're fine for different skin wounds.
Place dressing over wound, ensuring the adhesive backing does not come into direct contact with the wound (to avoid damage to wound).
