... blue and green box with a picture of a dressing on the front so you can see what they look like. Each comes individually wrapped. The dressings themselves are white self adhesive, non-stick absorbent pads which are hypoallergenic, each one measures 10cm by 7cm- they look the same as the one my son was given at the hospital.
You're directed to wash and dry the wound then apply the dressing, replacing it atleast daily with a fresh one. Although not waterproof my son managed to get these to last a day or two before ...more

Unfortunately I've had to buy these a few times, the most recent being for my son. He'd been climbing over railings, yes you've guessed it....... resulting in a 7 hour casualty wait and a load of stitches in his hand. The wound was sown up and dressed, the nurse gave us a spare dressing. He was told him to keep it clean and dry and to come back in the week. Clean and dry? it was off by the next day and so was the spare. I popped to Tesco as that was the only place open in the evening and bought a pack of dressings. There are 5 in the box which cost me just over a pound- so not too dear. The dressings come in a pale blue and green box with a picture ... Read the complete review

Just over a week ago I had a new tattoo but I didn't go to my usual tattooists and went on a friends recommendation to go to one in Burnley. I have had quite a few tattoo's now and I am well aware of how to look after them so they heal correctly so I did everything the same as with my others in the days after having it done. After a few days it was still agony and I was struggling to even wear a jacket as the fabric brushing against the tattoo was just so sore. Seven days down the line the tattoo started leaking and it was evident that there was infection there so I went straight to Tesco to buy some dressings to protect it. The pharmacist advised me to buy ... Read the complete review

Last week I had an operation on my right hand to cure my Carpel Tunnel Syndrome and at first it was wrapped in padding covered by an elastic bandage to keep it straight and protected until it began to knit together. After three days I was allowed to take the bandage and padding off and when I did so the dressing beneath was a white sterile adhesive pad. I was advised to leave this on the wound and not to get it wet until I have the stitches out next week - 15 days after the operation. The following morning I had a shower complete with a plastic bag on my hand secured tightly round my wrist with elastic bands to keep out the water - right? Wrong! I ... Read the complete review

I have two young daughter aged 2 and 5 so there always seems to be accidents in our house, I bought these to keep in the first aid box as they are much bigger than a normal plaster. I bought the dressings from Tesco and they are part of Tescos own range so you can only buy these ones from Tesco but you can buy similar in many different places. The pack which contains 5 dressings costs around £1.50 which makes them much more expensive than plasters. The product comes packaged in a white and green cardboard box which states the name of the shop and the name of the product along with a picture on the front to give you an idea what is inside. You are ... Read the complete review

I used to use the non adhesive dressings whenever I needed to cover up a nasty cut/graze/scratch etc but I decided to try these when I came across them in Tesco. I'd never really noticed them before and they seemed like good value and quicker to put on than non adhesive dressings which need securing with tape. These dressings are basically a spongey sort of pad with a sticky outer part and they're a long square shape. The spongey middle part protects sore and inflamed skin/flesh and the outer part keeps it in place. The dressings come in a pack of 5 & are priced at about £1.25 which is a bit more expensive than normal plasters and not as good value but ... Read the complete review
