1. 
   I picked these up on an impulse, tired of sporting Dora and Strawberry Shortcake bandages over my manly shaving-related mutilations. Just an impulse, good for a few chuckles, but I'm glad I did.
   
   I like these bacon bandages. I love bacon, it makes everything tastier. You ever have scallops wrapped in bacon? Or, where I grew up, we had the francheezie, a quarter-pound dog, split up and filled with cheese, and wrapped with bacon. I love the idea of garnishing myself with bacon, and all it symbolizes. To my kosher cousins, the bacon serves as a slight, a defiant declaration that I will not be laden down by dogma and delusion. To my vegan brothers and sisters, the bacon is a visible symbol of my dishonor, a white-meat scarlet letter confessing my lack of grit: "I'm with you in spirit, comrades, but the flesh is weak."
   
   I'm so fond of these band-aids that it's a little bit of a downer when my wounds heal up. I eager anticipate paper cuts. I'm actually contemplating getting a bacon tattoo. Let me know what you think.

1. I had been unable to find this item in the stores near my home; I was glad to find them on line. This particular bandaid stays on much longer than most of them especially when you get it wet.

1. I cut hair for kids and sometimes when they don't stop moving so you just have to make a cut. Every once in a while I nick myself and this particular time it was really bad...my blood wouldn't stop dripping to the ground, so I put one of these bandages on and it saved me from changing bandages between cuts because it didn't bleed through. These are the best bandages ever!



2. Best band-aid you can buy, helps minor cuts heal really fast, I really like this new system of healing cuts.



3. In September of 2007 I was diagnosed with a squamous cell carcinoma. These carcinomas are one of the non-metastatic skin cancers.
   
   My carcinoma was removed in my dermatologist's office. Prior to the removal I had showered and scrubbed the area where the cancer was located. The woman who removed the cancer also scrubbed the site. I planned to use this particular bandage and I believed it was important that it only be used over a wound that was recent and very clean.
   
   The cancer was excised and I had 5 stitches to close the removal area.
   
   At the time of the excision I was told that I should remove my bandage, apply an antibiotic ointment and re-bandage the wound two times a day.
   
   I was not given a prescription for oral antibiotics.
   
   Prior to the excision I had researched this type of bandage. They are a type of bandage called a "HYDROCOLLOID". They have been used after surgeries for about twenty years. Their successful use over stitches (also called, "sutures") is well researched and documented.
   
   The product information on these bandages says not to use them over stitches, however, because I knew that extensive research showed them to be fine for use over stitches, I decided to use them anyway.
   
   I also knew from my research prior to the excision, that it was considered desirable to leave this dressing/bandage on for at least 5 days before changing. Therefore, I ignored the recommendation made at the doctor's office and left the bandage on for 5 days before each change. I did not use any topical antibiotics.
   
   After two weeks I went back to the doctor's office to get my stitches removed. I told them that I had used this hydrocolloid bandage and that I had only changed the bandage twice since the surgery. When they removed the bandage and stitches they remarked that the wound looked remarkably well-healed and that scarring seemed unusually light.
   
   I would suggest looking up HYDROCOLLOID bandages on the Internet to get more information on them. Also, I WOULD ONLY USE THESE BANDAGES ON A WOUND THAT IS VERY CLEAN, UNINFECTED AND LESS THAN A FEW HOURS OLD.
   
   I like this bandage because it stayed on very well, limited the amount of cleaning, medication and re-bandaging I needed to do and I had very little scarring.



4. Recently, I skinned my knuckle and I lost a 3/4" by 1/4" patch of skin. In the past when I've skinned knuckles, it took a long while to heal, with the scab growing slowly and cracking due to the movement of the skin and re-scabbing over the period of a couple weeks. This time, I washed it out with soap and water and, after rinsing and drying thoroughly, I covered it with one of these Activ-flex bandages. It didn't sting, conformed to the skin around my knuckles, and sealed out the air and water very well. Each bandage has survived showers (sometimes twice!). The first day, a lot of liquid accumulated under the bandage, and I was apprehensive about taking it off, but other than some clear blister liquid, things looked normal. A word of advice, when removing, grab one edge and stretch the band-aid parallel to the skin and it leaves almost no residue. After four days and three bandages, my knuckle is almost completely healed with no scarring or pain. As someone who uses more than his share of band-aids, I will be using activ-flex bandages for any home-treatable scrape or cut.



5. I am a 22 year old female (daughter of Richard Trezevant) and I am often knicking myself when shaving my legs and I burn myself sometimes to. I have been trying to find a band aid that wouldnt fall off easily and that will last a long time; well one day my parents had a box of these in their a draw (not a medicine cabinet) where they keep medicine and these are THE best band aids in THE world! What you do is, you place the band aid where its bleeding or burned, you press it for like a minute and then it stays in place; it sticks very well and it has a medicine that heals the injury in a short amount of time. One of my favorite things about this bandaid is you can actually wear it in the shower and it wont fall off!

1. I absolutely love the NexCare line. It is a comprehensive line of bandaging and wound care products. Everything I have purchased from them has superior performance. The waterproof bandages are truly waterproof, even in the shower or the dishpan, yet it does not hurt when you remove them. BONUS -- other brands use an adhesive that causes a histamine reaction for me (I get angry red swelling and itching wherever the adhesive touched my skin), but NexCare products do NOT cause this).
   
   They are harder to find in the drug stores these days (I suspect there is some sort of exclusionary deal going on with a competitor), so I'm very glad that Amazon is making the product available.
   
   Save time, save fuel, save the planet, hassle-free. Buy Nexcare from Amazon.
