The Band-Aid Water Block Flex Adhesive Bandages are 100% waterproof adhesive bandages designed to block out water, dirt, and germs while keeping the pad dry so minor cuts and scrapes can heal. This 20-Count pack features individual bandages measuring 7/8 in by 2-3/4 in. They are a doctor-recommended style of sterile bandage built for active, everyday use in wet environments.
Key benefits come from the combination of a flexible fabric-like material, a nonstick Quilt-Aid Comfort Pad, and a four-sided adhesive that helps keep the pad dry under wet conditions. The bandages are designed to stick to the skin (not the wound) for gentle, easy removal, and they are ultra-flexible to move with your body. For best results, apply to clean, dry skin and replace as needed. If infection protection is desired, apply an antibiotic ointment before covering with a Band-Aid Brand Adhesive Bandage.
