Reply To: Are Band-Aids safe? 🤕🅱️

Thanks everyone!

It was still bleeding after 1-2 hrs when I removed the Band-Aids, but wasn’t bleeding as long as I had them wrapped around tight. I put on looser Band-Aids before sleep, and elevated my hand with a pillow. When I woke up and changed the Band-Aids, I started bleeding again. Thankfully, last time I checked, about 20 min ago, it wasn’t bleeding – but looks freshly cut.

Wouldn’t it be interesting if we just had extra skin on hand to do grafts? Instead of a Band-Aid being removable, what if it was just skin that we could add on?

Btw Health, I’ve used regular super glue on my fingers before, to seal up the sensitive crevices near peeling skin around my fingernail – Is medical grade super glue sold in tiny little squirt bottles too? Does it also dry super quickly?
