COMPEED® Sports Underfoot Blister Plaster has been specially designed to fit the ball of the foot to protect against rubbing, due to its thicker cushioning zone that provides optimal comfort and protection during any sports activity
Compeed® hydrocolloid technology is an active gel with moisture absorbing particles
Ideal for all underfoot blisters
Pack of 5 plasters
Hydrocolloid technology
A hydrocolloid plaster contains an active gel to absorb fluid from the wound (called exudate), creating and maintaining a moist environment that helps facilitate healing
Thick cushioning redistributes pressure from the blister to deliver instant pain relief
Compeed® has a tapered edge so it contours smoothly with the skin’s surface
This reduces friction and ensures the healing process is not disrupted by painful rubbing
Stays in place for several days
Individual experience may vary
At the first signs of irritation or blister formation, the Compeed® blister plaster will help relieve the pain due to friction thanks to its cushioning effect
Compeed® specialist plasters will help relieve the pain caused by the blister and help the skin heal
How does a hydrocolloid plaster such as Compeed® act on a blister?
A blister is a type of wound and the hydrocolloid technology will therefore help it to heal fast
The plaster contains hydrocolloid particles
These hydrocolloid particles are distributed throughout the plaster and absorb fluid from the wound (exudate).
They help maintain an optimal moisture level to facilitate healing
During treatment, the hydrocolloid particles swell which creates a cushioning effect, redistributing pressure and providing instant pain relief.
The hydrocolloid plaster is composed of a polyurethane film
It is flexible and adapts to the surface to be covered to help mobility. It protects the wound from contamination by external bacteria, thus helping to reduce the risk of infection
The plaster, while being water-resistant outside the wound, allows excess wound fluid to evaporate from the wound and allows the skin to breathe
Compeed® plasters have bevelled edges to maximise adhesion to the skin. They act like a second skin and are designed to remain in place for several days (depending on the individual)
