FAQs

How often should I change the dressing?

Change the dressing when it becomes saturated with exudate, or as directed by your healthcare professional, typically every 1-3 days.

Can I shower with the dressing on?

Yes, Primapore dressings are water-resistant. However, avoid prolonged exposure to water and pat the dressing dry after showering.

What should I do if the dressing gets wet?

If the dressing becomes wet, pat it dry gently. If the dressing is compromised, change it as soon as possible.

Can I cut the dressing to fit my wound?

While it's possible, it is recommended to use a dressing size that closely matches the wound size. Cutting the dressing may compromise its seal and effectiveness. Consult your healthcare professional.
