Medical Bleached Absorbent Cotton Wool

High quality, gauze covered medical absorbent cotton wool for protection and wound management.

Characteristics

• Insulates and cushions a wound, protecting it from external trauma.
• Can be applied over wound dressings prior to bandaging.
• Use as padding on top of a hoof poultice to secure the poultice in place and provide an extra layer of support.
• Ideal to be used as a compression pad if a wound is oozing blood.
• Perfect for general swabbing and cleaning wounds. Easy to use:
• Can be cut into the exact size and shape required
• Secure with a support bandage or an elastic dressing
• Avoid overlapping as this could result in pressure points
• Where pressure points such as the knee are at risk a “comfort” hole should be made.
