Take Control of Diabetes Wound Care
Living with diabetes often requires ongoing wound care, so having the right supplies is crucial for your health and comfort. Properly dressing wounds is essential to preventing serious complications, which means using quality wound care tape.
Additionally, you may need to use tape to keep equipment such as CGMs, IVs, catheters, and ostomy pouches securely in place. With hundreds of affordable wound care solutions in our inventory, we make it easy to find exactly what you need to improve your quality of life.
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I consider when shopping for medical tape for dressing wounds?
Your first step should be to consult with a health care professional to determine which type of tape best suits your unique needs.
Here are some factors to keep in mind when making your decision:
-
Skin Type: If you have fragile, moist, or dry skin, you may need to choose a wound care tape designed for your skin type.
-
Equipment Compatibility: If you use a glucose monitor, tubing, an IV, a catheter, or an ostomy pouch, you may need to choose a tape that's designed for that purpose.
-
Moisture Requirements: If the wound is prone to wetness, you may need to choose a tape that still adheres when moist.
-
Thickness: Tape that's too thick or too thin may fall off or fail to provide proper wound support.
How should I treat diabetic foot ulcers?
A healthcare professional can recommend a personalized treatment.
Some people use gels and liquids, such as hydrogel, with wound care tape. The hydrogel provides the moisture and bacterial protection the ulcer needs to heal properly. Hydrogel is also non-adherent, so removing the tape is less likely to cause pain.
How do I remove sticky surgical tape for wounds?
Here are some ways to reduce stickiness when removing medical tape for dressing wounds:
-
Apply a warm, wet washcloth to the area for 10-15 minutes before removing adhesive tape for dressing wounds.
-
Take a bath before removing the tape.
-
Hold one finger at the peel line to stabilize the skin. Slowly remove the tape, keeping it close to the skin's surface.
-
Avoid removing wound care tape from a vertical angle.
-
Gently rub an oil or lotion recommended by a health care professional into the tape. Gently wipe away any residue with a washcloth before removing the tape.
-
Use a medical-grade adhesive remover.
