1 Inch Wide Skin Colour Elastic Self- Adhesive Bandage Finger Tape,Wrap Bandages for Wrist and Ankle for Chair and Table Legs to Reduce Friction and Noise-12pc

About 3 weeks ago I got careless in the kitchen and cut my index finger at the second bone joint with an apple coring device. The cut was at least 1/8 of an inch deep or so, and it was bleeding on the floor. I cleaned the wound and using skin healing creams and bandages from a recent facial surgery, I wrapped and changed the bandage for 8 days. The cut no longer bled, and so I removed the bandages, but the area was still stiff and hard to bend the finger. I started using it to type and grasp things, and in a few days noticed the finger was getting warm, red and swollen. I called the doctor, but they were not going to be much help, and since it didn't look infected, I didn't push the issue. I'd tried ice, but it was only a temporary help, and the swelling seemed to be worse. Catching a video on rock climbing strains on the finger joints. I saw them use a similar wrap and it showed just how to wrap it up to inhibit the swelling. Doing that the last four days, the swelling and pain has gone down considerably so, I can safely conclude I'm on the mend. I even have a little movement range improvement and the swelling is nearly gone. These are not sticky to the touch, but when stretched and wrapped the bandage tends to use the friction and softness to stick to the wrapping, I used some scotch tape the first time since it didn't seem sticky, but noticed later is wasn't needed the wrap holds in place with light tension. Recommended.

Not sticky but somehow it sticks.

Great product, long lasting wear

Good price from this vendor, and this works well for what it is. I would not use this as your only covering for a cut, scrape or other small wound, does not adhere to itself too well, and not at all to your skin which is fine-makes it hard to work with though, since you cannot adhere it onto your skin before you wrap it around. Good protective properties-but I would use something else to cover antiseptic first, as this will just wick out whatever you put on your wound, it breathes right through. Good as a support wrapping for fingers, toes etc.

This stuff is great & each roll packaged separately. I had work done on my toes- lots of wrapping in my future for at least a month and a half. This is slightly thinner than what the Dr used and therefore more comfortable. It still stretches, lays flat, and holds great. I also threw out the silk tape in my toolbox 1st aid kit, and the poly-waterproof tape in my dirt bike kit. This stuff will be in a fresh package each time, it's easier to one hand, and stays put.

This product works well. The nice thing about this was that it sticks well to itself. It can be readjusted one time. The other thing that I like was it could be removed without pulling or cutting. I was using on my finger after surgery so this made it easy to remove.

Anyone that uses these regularly knows the cheap ones normally come with 1 of 2 main issues? Either they don't stretch OR they aren't sticky (which defeats they point of specifically buying "self-adhesive" bandages). These stretch plenty but they lack in the sticky department. What I noticed is the tape glue tends to stick to itself better once its warmed up. If I have time then I've hold it in my hands for bit to warm it up 1st. If don't have time for that, I use a piece of regular tape to hold it in place until warmed and then stays in place. But having to use tape for my tape is just ridiculous! I measured with tape and it's 1 inch across. (Roughly a man's finger width). What I did like is that it looks like they are not covered in pic's? It comes shipped in a large zip lock baggy BUT each tape roll is also individually wrapped as well. This means you can toss a roll in a back pack, pocket, purse, etc and it not turn into a dust collector. I wasn't sure if they would skimp on individual wrapping for cheap sticker price? The cheap sticker price for 1 time use as trash item AND the packaging may keep me as a customer depending on the stick-and-stay-stuck factor after using up my 1st bag? I will update my review IF this becomes an issue.

Great price on a great product

Cheap China stuff .

Doesn’t stick . Just like a regular piece of fabric
