It is not sterilised, so it can be used as a second layer or you can find a way to sterilise it manually. It can be cut to size without the fabric unravelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is made from fine cotton threads, hypoallergenic and very resistant to withstand movement, stretching and so on. In addition, the fabric is breathable, allowing the skin covered by it to breathe normally and not irritate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has excellent absorbency, ideal for preventing blood, pus and other secretions from being exposed to the outside environment. By encapsulating the wound with the gauze, it will create a safe environment with the right temperature to accelerate natural healing, without the use of other products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho is it suitable for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is indicated to cover and protect superficial and deep wounds from the outside. Suitable for adults and children, although care should be taken to ensure that children's skin is not hypersensitive to cotton wool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstructions for use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt should be placed over open wounds in such a way that it protects the wound from the outside environment and vice versa. As it is not sterile, it is recommended as a second layer without direct contact with the wound. It can also be used as a compressive method for various muscle injuries that require some pressure or support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo use it, you must open the envelope containing the gauze and see if the size is suitable for the area where you are going to use it; if not, cut it to size. Bandage the area with the gauze using proper technique and change it regularly if necessary. You can also apply it without bandaging, simply pressing the gauze against the wound until bleeding or discharge stops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can even use it to clean the wounded area by soaking the gauze with an antiseptic solution and wiping it lightly over the injury.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eContraindications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep away from any source of heat or ignition, as the tissue is flammable.
