My Annoying Hand
My poor hand doesn’t seem to have the will to allow a plaster to stick on it.
The nurse at the surgery had a go this morning and his effort with steri-strips is coming to grief, as my skin doesn’t seem to offer enough grip for them.
- The Strips That Won’t Stick
- A Proper Dressing
- Covered In A Cotton Glove
So I’ve now put a solid old fashioned lint patch and zinc-oxide plaster over the wound. I now cover it with a cotton glove to help stop the plaster being disturbed.
After all it is the Eve of All Saints’ Day.
I suppose the problem is that, as the wound is on the point of the knuckle, any movement stretches the skin. I think I might go to Rymans, if this doesn’t stick and buy a large rubber band.
It is all very annoying!



You can buy shaped plasters that you can put on knuckles, but lint, or even better, Melolin is really good. I hope it heals up quickly
