I had a scooter accident in Bali last week... came off my scooter at about 70km per hour after hitting a giant pothole in the road. I slide along the hot asphalt grating my shoulder, knees, elbows and hands. I was left with really bad abrasions. Went to the nearest "doctor" who barely did anything and sent me on my way after prescribing the best antibiotic for this situation. I went to a med clinic the next morning who cleaned the wounds properly to get rid of the dirt and dust still in my skin! OUCH!!! They applied new dressings which were of the old fashioned gauze variety. I experience so much pain and discomfort. 2 days later the next dr. applied the same gauze dressing having to clean and scrape away all kinds of horrible! So I lay in bed in agony and did some research. I found this video about HYDROCOLLOID and went to the pharmacy the next day and bought 6 x HYDROCOLLOID patches to take to the dr to replace my dressing. The situation improved immediately after they applied them over my severe wounds. I will update this comment in 1 week after i have them checked and replaced. So far pain has been reduced and my body is happier.
@@lazurm sorry for the late reply! The hydrocolloids worked very well on the areas where I had medium depth scrapes spread over a very large area of my shoulders arms and back. The wounds healed quickly and there was no pain from dressing changes as they stay on for about a week and come off so easily keeping the healing tissue perfectly intact which is the main benefit as well as being able to shower as they are totally waterproof. They didn’t work so well for me on my ankles and feet which had very deep grazing all the through the skin to the flesh. The healing took forever and there was significant pain when I walked I could feel lots of pressure from my blood as I stood upright. It took a very long time maybe 4 weeks to heal and there is scar tissue but that’s because all the skin scraped off on the road. I think on the smaller deep wounds on feet I would have preferred my body to make scabs as I felt like it would have been less painful when walking instead of the moist wound healing process which did take forever. All in all I’ll definitely have hydrocolloids in the house and travel with them!!!
Just to add that the Dr. in the video does such a fantastic job at explaining this HYDROCOLLOID technology and I was mesmerizer by her voice and eloquence.
I have never met this type of dressing before. So I was very intrigued when my partner came home with this on a severe wound on his shin. He has had the dressing on since Saturday, and it has bubbled up and looks strange. It looks like the dressing is drawing all the puss/poison out of the wound. I have to put a new on the wound on Wednesday and then he is back at the clinic on Saturday. cant wait to see the outcome.
Lauri Albee you have to let it heal under it and then it will almost come off itself. It removes less skin than it helped grow if you leave it for a few days
In a wheelchair most of the time. Got a ulcer stage 3 . Didn't know cause can't see wear it was. Hurt but just a little so took a nurse to notice it at home. He said I need to go to the er asap . So I did.
Mary Rose, we definitely do not suggest ignoring these wounds! Glad you got help. You can also look for certified wound care professionals in your area here - portal.abwmcertified.org/ABWMweb/Directory/ABWMcontent/Directory.aspx
Yes, I use them for road rash. Do not use it with any cream. Wash well before hand. If you are concerned about infection then use the neosporin with a different bandage type then once its under control switch to this bandage for it to heal properly. I've used the clear 3M ones for minor road rash as well.

This was the only video where I finally felt like I learned what I needed to know about hydrocolloid dressings!

How did they heal? 😊
I had a bike accident, using one on my forehead and knee post-stitches. Only bandages I can take baths in, so I'm not stanky ahaha.
I hope all your wounds are healed by now!
I love the way SO many people promise to update their statements and NEVER DO. "No-one-care-bears", welcome to the line.

Dear Bears 7885: The Dr. truly, is a mesmerizer.

Taylor Baxter did it work? I have three of this patches on me right now and to be honest I'm kind of unsure about them.
I'm so confused won't it RIP the sore off its sticky where they say to put on the sore

Thx u! Your videoes about would dressings are all perfectly made
I use them on my pimples
really helpful. especially CI's. well presented!
I haven't found how to properly put this on wounds yet. No one has ever shown how. It's very impt.
Can I use these on road rash wounds? Also can I use neosporin on the wound and then place the Hydrocolloid bandage over it?

Thumbs up👍. Very informative 👏
Should I use these on a asphalt burn? It’s basically a 2nd degree burn, leaking a lot of fluid. Skin all the way pilled off from street asphalt
Very helpful and thorough. Thank you
We need ways to take them into the field, high temperatures and water resistant containers?
Can i put them over a popped boil after cleaning
are suitable.on children on burn second degree after one week burns to prevent scars? thanks
excellent video
i get that this video was produced for health industry professionals, but damn does all the jargon give me 'Rockwell Retro Encabulator' vibes
Great video. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much
I can't find any information on when to remove it, if it turns white should I remove it? or just let it be until the week is up
Once they begin to peel off on their own, they're ready to be removed.
Kindly mention the names of hydrocollids which absorb fluids and not suitable for wounddressing
Duoderm or Tegaderm are both good
I was very much looking for some wound videos like this one! thank you very much, excellent video
Thank U...video helpful
Thanks
thank u
I’ve been wondering wtf the white cloud is, but all that comes up is acne tiktoks lol
